THE PRACTICAL DESIGNER

LESSON 99.

JUNIOR'S CIRCLE SKIRT.—SIZE TWELVE.

The measurements for this skirt are the same as the 5-gore skirt. Draw lines from A to C and A to B; from A to C is one-half of waist and from C to D is 3 inches up. Measure the front length from A to B; make the hip line one-third of size below the waist from E to F; measure one-half of hip from E and F and connect a line from D against F to J, which makes the back line of this skirt; measure the back length from D to J and the side and front lengths; curve the bottom from B to I and J; always curve the waist first from A to H and D; from C to 2 should be 1 inch top curve. This completes the circle skirt. Be careful to allow all seams.
