waistband are cut double, lengthwise of the stuff,
from Figs. 35, 36, and 37.

the manner in which the parts are joined together.

87-91. tuck and cut the
front from Fig. 87; and cut the rest of the garment from
Figs. 88, 90, and 91. Put the buttons on the right side and
the button-holes in the left of the bosom, then stitch a
false hem about an inch wide, on the left side, in order to
conceal the buttons. Set on the waistband, to correspond
with the numbers on the pattern; and put loops on each
shoulder through which to pass the suspenders. Make the
collar of double linen, stitch it round the edge, put it on
a binding, and sew it to
the front. Finish with button and button-hole.
