THE PRACTICAL DESIGNER


INTRODUCTION

Recognizing the great need of a modern work on designing and garment cutting for women, misses, juniors and children, I prepared the system which will probably answer the purpose of all kinds of garments.

The interest of this work impressed me to write such a system from the outgrowth of many years of practical experience, and combines a simplicity and accuracy that were never before published in the details of designing and garment cutting.

The natural result, I believe, will be found in this work for all those who desire a good study on this subject. It is gathered from facts of many years' travelling through the field.

However, I am glad to say that thousands of readers will have the opportunity of looking into practical work on designing and garment cutting, and to such an extent that has become necessary which I have enlarged upon, adding many facts, as it is practically a new work.

This is certainly a new Work which T hope that, in time, will be properly recognized and given attention. It is. I think, the greatest work of the twentieth century. The standing of practical designers depends upon the practical development of garment cutting. This is remarkably true.

I am sure that the one who studies this work will be led to mechanical control of practical knowledge in designing and garment cutting.
