 S. B. NEWMARKET. Diagram 311.

The special feature of the Newmarket is the skirt, which is sewn to the body part about 2 inches below the waist.

The diagram illustrates the run of waist seam at 2 inches below at back, 1½ at side, and 2½ at front.

This, however, is a matter of taste, but any variation must be compensated for in the skirt.

The upper portion of this diagram is found as described for Diagram 292.

The back is continued to full length with one inch added on either side to form side pleats.

The skirt is drawn straight across the top from E to C.

A line is drawn at right angles down to 6, mark out 1½ and draw a line as in diagram.

Add on ½ inch and complete run over hip.

Carefully check it by placing the waist of sidebody to waist of skirt, and seeing that the run over hips harmonises.

Find run of front in same way by putting the fronts at E, or by squaring F, G by E 6.

The run of the front is largely a matter of taste.
