CHILD'S FRONT MODEL COMPLETE

In completeing a child's front foundation continue sketching for the body foundation as follows: Complete the neck by dividing about ½ space from 0 to X, which makes 16 and from X to 15 is ¼ of the space between X and 1. Curve immediately from 15 to 16 and both sides of the raising lines from 15 to 16 curve slanting way in for the neck part. Then make the round circle at top for the neck, as shown on the diagram.

From 1 to 17, which is showing the shoulder point, is about, ⅓ space in. Connect from 15 to 17 and 16 to 18 with a full or a trifle increased amount to the outside line, which is drawn from 0 to 10. Continue the right hand sleeve from 17 with a medium outward curve somewhat below the hip pass 4. The left hand sleeve, which is beginning from the shoulder point at 18 straight down towards 11 below hip line and the outside curve is made full from 18 lost somewhat below as shown on the diagram.

Then continue to curve the same hidden from the arm for the full length and width of coat or dress down to 14 and the right hand side from 17 down somewhat curvy at 3 out and somewhat fuller to 13 and then make a bottom curve from 13 to 14, which completes the length of this foundation. Make a waist effect curve from 3 to 12 and 11, as shown on the diagram to show the low waist effect which is similarly curved to the collar, as shown to 15 and 16. Otherwise, this foundation is complete.
