    Sewing is the dominant method for assembling garments as it achieves both strength and flexibility in seams and manufacturing. There are five key factors to consider when sewing garments: 1) the seam type which is the configuration of fabric(s), 2) the stitch type which is the configuration of thread, 3) the sewing machine feeding mechanism which moves the fabric past the needle, 4) the needle which inserts the thread, and 5) the thread which forms the stitch to hold fabrics together or decorate them.

    Sewing

    The dominant part in garment assembly is Sewing, stil the best way of achieving both strength and flexibility in the seam itself as well as the flexibility of manufacturing method. Assuming that fabric is sewable and suitabke for garments, the achievement, at an economical level, of the various requirement of appearance and performance ewn seams, both initially and during use, is the selection of the correct combination of five factors during manufacturing: i. ii. iii. iv. v. the seam type which is a particular configuration of fabric(s); the stitch type which is a particular configuration of thread in the fabric; the sewing machine feeding mechanism which moves the fabric past the needle and enables a succession of stitcjes to be formed; the needle which inserts the thread into the fabric; the thread which forms the stitch which either holds the fabric together,neatens it or decorates it.

    I.

    Seam type The choice of seam is determined by aesthetic standards, strength, durability, comfort in wear, convenience in assembly in relation to the machinery available, and cost. The types of seams used in the garments we selected are:

    II.

    Stitch type A series of recurring stitches of one configuration is called as a stitch type. Sewing machine feed mechanism In achieving the objectives of good appearance and performance in seams, correct and even stitch length is essential, along with fabric joins which are either smooth and unobstrusive or evenly eased or gathered, according to the requirements of fit and style. In the construction of seams and formation of the stitches that holds them together, these requirements are achieved by means of the mechanism that feeds the fabric(s) past the needle. This is a mechanism at the needle point,conventionally referred to as sewing machine feed system.
