88 LESSON NO. 48

INFANT'S MODEL

FRONT FOUNDATION

In beginning infant's front foundation for the entire body which may be used for a dress or a coat, we employ the entire foundation from the neck to the ground as shown in the child's size. Note the difference in height, each space is somewhat less than the child's size. It is immaterial what space is used for the child's body sketch, for the infant's we use ⅛ less to make the foundation look shorter in order to correspond with the age of the child.

Otherwise divide the spaces as usual. For the full length garments which is to be the dress or coat is to be built to the knee which is similar to the child's model. The outline is to be followed according to the instruction of child's model with the exception which is mentioned above. Otherwise the difference between the child's and infants model is very trifle.
