+1838 Drawers
+============

+
+Materials
+---------
+
+Fabric
+^^^^^^
+
+* Less than 1.5 m of lightweight cotton or linen, at least 140 cm
+ wide.
+
+Notions
+^^^^^^^
+
+* sewing thread to match the fabric;
+
+Pattern
+-------
+
+:cite:`1838:workwoman` gave measurements for these drawers in just one
+size, mentioning that they would work for a person of *moderate size*;
+they are, converted to cm:
+
+
+====== ==
+meas cm
+====== ==
+width 80
+length 86
+A to B 23
+B to C 46
+C to G 40
+C to E 40
+F to G 6
+F to S 29
+====== ==
+
+For modern bodies, I would adapt these measurements by using the
+distance between the waist and the ankle plus 6 cm (for hems and
+allowances) for the total length, and half the width of the (modern)
+fabric for the width, as long as that's almost the circumference of the
+hips (so that the total circumference of the drawers will be close to
+*twice* the circumference of the hips).
+
+For the width of the hem (A to B) and for the vertical distance between
+the front and the back waist (G to F) I'd stay close to the suggested
+measurements, and scale everything else in proportion.
+
+For the waistband, I'd use the width of the waist plus an overlap for
+the buttons: if the buttons are in the front a smaller overlap of maybe
+3 cm will be enough, up to 5-10 cm if the buttons are in the back.
+
+There is a valentina file :download:`drawers.val` which does all of these
+calculations based on the measurements in the corresponding
+:download:`measurements.vit`. Note that all sewing allowances are
+included in the pieces (and should be as small as the fabric allows).
+
+Rather than printing the pattern (and especially the bigger pieces) I'd
+reccommend reading the length of relevant segments in the Variable Table
+and measuring them directly on the fabric.
