The system illustrated and explained in this revised edition, will undoubtedly give full understanding to the reader, why, or to what extent, a system is necessary as the methods in these pages are so distinctly described showing its great usefulness by its scientifical points and, at the same time, the reader will find every impression made on these pages, step by step, worthy and well spent so that the enlargement of this edition is not only made to occupy more pages for this valuable work, but to give the great many more valuable facts, which will serve as a solid ground to every branch on designing and garment cutting and which will also be beautified by its modern features, which are explained thereon. I therefore hope it will be found so and appreciated by those interested to study this work.
I am sure that the one who studies this work will be led to a more mechanical controlling of practical knowledge, which will increase their power of up-to-date methods. The satisfaction I feel in completing this work, as I believe it to be, will enable the reader to master correct forms and explanations and to convey by means of his own ideas as they are often suggested in every line of business and by doing so, I am most sure that the student will employ the best method of this branch by applying his method and needs on positive proportions and practical details upon this work, which will lead them to great increase of power on the subject of designing and pattern making for women's, misses', juniors', children' and infants' garments.
The value of this book in which I am describing my methods is not only covering one or two branches of clothing the female body and describing its doings in one particular way, but I am giving full explanation of how to master every particular garment and producing the same in several different ways, which will teach practically every style on each branch such as, women's, misses', juniors', children's and infants', coats, jackets, skirts, waists and dresses including grading, sketching, fitting, tailoring and dressmaking in many practical ways, and which will enlargen the talent of every student of this branch and connect them to the needs that are to be used from time to time.
I therefore hope that the methods as taught in this valuable work will bring that result, which I, as author, sincerely desire.
