Abstract

This study aims to conduct an experimental study of the effect of some practical methods of sewing on the properties and performance of sewing for some twilled fabrics produced from ultra-fine fibers,with the following variables:
-Three weft densities were used, which were: (57, 62, 67) weft / inch.
-Three different textile structures were used, which were: (2/1 twill, whipcord twill, broken twill).
The specifications of warp and weft threads were fixed for all the fabrics produced under this study, the warp thread was made of 100% cotton (No.14/1), and the weft was from the microfiber (300) denier.
Then the sewing was performed on the samples according to the following sewing variables:
1- Number of sewing thread: spinned Polyester thread was used No. (20/2, 40/2) English numbering.
2- Sewing seam type: two types of sewing seam were used (Regular seam SSa.1, English seam LSc.2).
3- Length of sewing stitch: three stitch lengths were used, which are (2, 3, 4) mm respectively.
results that were reached:
- The fabric produced with a textile structure ( twilled whipcord), the weft density of ( 67 weft / inch), the English seam (LSc.2), the length of the sewing stitch (2 mm), and the number of the sewing thread (20/2) English numbering is the best for all the measured properties of the produced fabrics under the study with a quality factor (89,59%).
