I. Introduction (Time Frame: 20 minutes)
Drafting patterns of household linens is as important as drafting patterns for clothing. They are
pieces of paper patterns that when placed together will form a replica of the actual product.

D. Development (Time Frame: 80 minutes)
Steps in Pattern Making
1. Start with a sketch, drawing, or a photographic image of a linen product or clothing scaled into the
desired size you want.
2. Using correct measurements, scale the sketch or drawing on the pattern paper. The linens and curves
determine how the article or clothing is broken down into sections.
3. Cut the patterns paper to achieve the actual shape and size of the different parts of the product. We call
these pattern pieces templates that can be used in mass production.
4. Pattern can be modified on the original template to achieve the necessary size you want. You can make
it smaller or bigger by just decreasing or increasing the scale.
5. Lay down fabric flat on the table and position the different pattern pieces. You must take note of the grain
line or design of the cloth.
6. Pin the pattern on the cloth and start tracing.
7. Mark the needed allowances for sewing.
8. Cut the fabric on the lines for allowance.
9. Sew pieces together to form the shape or design wanted.
Sewing Creative and Marketable Household Linens
There are many commercially made household linens found in the market. There are of different types and
colors. Bed linens, bath linens, and table linens come in different sizes and designs. The following are some projects
ideas that you can start on:
NAPKIN PILLOWCASE
Materials:
One 20-inch cloth napkin sewing kit cord
12 or 14-inch square pillow button
Procedure:
1.Lay a 20-inch square cloth napkin face down, with one corner pointed to your direction resembling a
diamond.
2. Place in the center a 12 or 14-inch square pillow.
3. Fold in two side points of napkin to the center, then fold up bottom point.
4. Hand stitch together all three ends.
5. Attach a button near the point where the three ends are stitched together.
6. Sew a loop or cord to the underside of the fabric on the top flap as a button holder. Make sure that it fits
around button when closed.
IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
TABLE RUNNER
Materials:
1-yard decorative fabric Sewing machine
Matching thread Iron and ironing board
Sewing kit Tassels or any end-dangling accessory
Procedure:
1. Lay down your cloth on the table then fold it lengthwise with the wrong side out. Pin all the edges together.
2. Using the pattern illustrated below, pin the pattern over the cloth and mark all sides using a dressmaker’s
carbon underneath the folded cloth.
3. Mark ½ inch allowance all around the pattern. This is where you are going to cut the cloth.
4. Remove the pattern from the cloth and sew around the marked area leaving a 4-inch gap so that you can turn
the runner right side out.
5. Snip the corners before turning right side out.
6. Push out the corner using pencil or knitting needle. Press the fabric to flatten all the edges and corners.
7. Run a line of stitches around the edge of the runner. This will close the inch gap left to turn the runner right side
out and to give it a much more polished look.
8. Sew the tassels or accessories on both ends of the runner for accent.
