1. LESSON 5 IN DRESSMAKING:
CREATE SIMPLE PROJECT DESIGN
2. Principles of Design
How important are the principles of design in
adding beauty to your project? They are of
great help when you want to enhance the
quality and beauty of your project. These
principles will guide you on how to create a
nice project. The principles of designs are:
3. A. Balance
1. Symmetrical or
formal balance. It is
described as having
equal weight on both
sides at the center. This
design usually creates a
monotony to the design.
4. 2. Asymmetrical or
Informal balance. When
structures or designs are
different on both sides
from the center of the
design. You can use
different accessories for
both sides
6. C. Rhythm- It can be
created by radiated lines
as in gathered lines. It
can also be created by
gradual change of lines,
shapes or shade of colors
known as gradation.
7. Rhythm is also
achieved through
repetition of lines,
colors, shapes, and
texture. Rhythm can
move the eye easily
from one part to the
other.
8. D. Harmony- It is the
relationship of the
different portions of the
design. Harmony can be
achieved through the use
of color, shapes, and
texture to give a feeling
of oneness.
9. E. Proportion- It is the
pleasing relationship of
all parts of the object
with one another. It
also refers to the
relative size and scale
of objects.
10. The Color Wheel
The first thing you notice
when you buy clothes is
their color. Color has a
lot to do with how your
projects will look.
11. Primary Colors
All colors come from
three basic colors- red,
yellow, and blue. These
are called the primary
colors and are considered
the sources of all colors.
12. Secondary Colors
These colors are produced by
mixing two equal amounts of primary
colors.
■ If you mix equal amounts of
yellow and blue-green
■ If you mix equal amounts of red
and blue-violet
■ If you mix equal amounts of red
and yellow-orange
13. Intermediate Colors
These colors can be produced by
combining a primary color and
secondary color, and are found in
between them in the color wheel.
Examples:
yellow+green- yellow green
red+orange- red orange
blue+violet- blue violet
blue+green- blue green
red+violet- red violet
blue orange-blue orange
14. Color Schemes
The color scheme depends
upon how the colors
harmonize and how they
belong together.
16. Value refers to the lightness
or darkness of the shade
while intensity means the
brightness or dullness of a
color. The scale of the value
of colors are from the very
light to the very dark of the
shade.
17. 2. Analagous color or
adjacent color. They are
the colors near each
other on the color wheel.
Examples: yellow, yellow
orange, and orange.
18. 3. Complementary color
harmony. These colors
are directly opposite in the
color wheel. They produce
very pleasing colors.
Examples: red and green,
yellow and violet, blue and
orange.
19. Cool Colors
Cool colors are green,
blue green, blue, blue
violet, violet, and purple.
They are adjacent to
one another in the color
wheel. Blue is the
coolest color.
20. Warm colors are red, red
orange, yellow orange,
orange, yellow, and
yellow green. They are
also adjacent to each
other in the color wheel.
Red is the warmest color.
22. There are stitches commonly used
in embroidery to make your
project beautiful and pleasing to
the eye.
1. Fly stitch- Bring the thread
through at the top left, hold it
down with the left thumb, and
insert the needle to the right on
the same level.
23. 2. Stem stitch -
Work from left to
right with slanting
stitches along the
line of the design.
24. 3. Back stitch- Make one
running stitch, then take
back stitch to the
beginning of the first stitch
overlapping each running
stitch. It resembles the
machine stitches.
25. 4. Cross stitch- Work in rows
from left to right, keeping
needle straight between two
lines of the cross. Make
diagonal stitches to upper
corners. To make the second
half, work back from right to
left.
26. 5. Blanket stitch- From
left to right, bring
needle to the lower line.
Hold thread down with
left thumb. Insert
needle to the right
upper line.
27. 6. Satin stitch- Make
a padded design.
Make the stitches on
top of the padded
design either slanting
or straight.
28. 7. Chain stitch- Insert
the needle in and out of
the fabric. Bring the
thread under the tip of
the needle while still in
the fabric then pull the
needle through.
29. 8. Daisy stitch- Work in
the same way as chain
stitch but fasten each
loop at the foot with a
small stitch. This stitch
may be worked singly or
in groups to form flower
petals.
30. 9. Straight Stitch-
This is known as the
single- spaced stitch. It
can be done either in a
regular or irregular size
or long and short
stitch.
31. Hand Basting
As beginners, you need to learn how to hand
baste your project to prevent the materials from
moving or to keep the fabric from shifting while
sewing. It is used to hold the fabric temporarily
in place until it is sewed permanently. This can
also be done by machine basting and pin
basting
34. Basic Sewing Machine Exercises
There are several sewing machine stitches that
you should know to develop the skills in sewing
and handling the fabric, especially when
sewing simple projects such as pillowcase and
apron.
35. 1. Straight sew- This
exercise will help you to
easily control the sewing
machine. Make a series of
straight lines and use the
presser foot as guide to
make your stitches
straight.
36. 2. Corner sew- This
exercise is very useful
in sewing corners of
pillowcases and other
garments. Turn down
the needle on the fabric
before you turn the cloth
to a new position.
37. 3. Curve Sew- It is used
in necklines, collars,
sleeves, and pockets with
curved edges. When
sewing a curve, slow
down the sewing machine
to get a perfect curve.
