distance from edge of cloth that seam line should be made. All seam lines are indicated by dotted lines. The width of the shoulder seam (see Diagram 11) is always f of a space in depth. To get this seam line mark off I of a space, by your scale, inside the edge of your pattern, and then place your scroll in its original position, and while so placed move it gently toward the center of your pattern, until the points | space in, are intersected and draw your curved line. This line will be your seam line.

Follow these instructions in getting all your seam lines, being very careful to notice just how deep the seam is marked. When your seam is marked one-half inch, mark off one-half inch by the use of your tape measure; and when the seam line follows a straight line, draw it parallel with the straight line the required depth.

You will notice that in Diagram 11 we have one curved line (the arms eye) that is not marked for scrolling. The reason of this is that the convex side of the small end of the scroll is ahcays used for the scrolling of this curve and it is the only time that this portion of the scroll is ever used. You will notice that in this diagram the depth of thescrolling is not indicated. So closely follow the out line of your diagram, the straighter portions of the scroll being used most. Overlap your scrolling (see Article 21). The scrolling at the shoulder seam is always in the same direction toward the neck, excepting in ^•ery stout forms, as will be shown later.
