Sample UPMSP High School Tailoring Practice Questions

1Which hand tool is primarily used to cut fabric cleanly along a cutting line?
A.Tailor's shears (fabric scissors)
B.Seam ripper only
C.Thimble only
D.Measuring tape only
Explanation: Tailor's shears are designed to cut fabric layers accurately. Other tools aid sewing, unpicking, or measuring but are not primary fabric-cutting tools.
2Why should fabric shears not be used to cut paper or cardboard?
A.Paper dulls the blades and reduces clean fabric cuts
B.Paper permanently magnetises the blades
C.Shears cannot physically open on paper
D.Paper oil-proofs the metal forever
Explanation: Paper and cardboard wear and dull shear blades quickly. Dull blades chew fabric, cause frayed edges, and reduce cutting accuracy in tailoring work.
3What is the main purpose of a thimble in hand sewing?
A.To protect the finger that pushes the needle through fabric
B.To measure waist circumference accurately
C.To cut buttonholes with a metal edge
D.To oil the sewing machine race
Explanation: A thimble is worn on the middle finger (commonly) to push the needle safely through dense fabric without injury.
4A seam ripper is mainly used to:
A.Remove stitches and open seams carefully
B.Mark grainlines on paper patterns
C.Wind bobbins at high speed
D.Press open seam allowances with heat
Explanation: The pointed tip and forked blade of a seam ripper cut threads so stitches can be removed without large fabric damage when used carefully.
5Which measuring tool is most suitable for taking curved body measurements such as bust and hip?
A.Flexible measuring tape (inch tape)
B.Steel carpenter's square only
C.Set square for geometry only
D.Rigid wooden metre stick only
Explanation: A flexible tape conforms to body curves and is the standard tool for garment body measurements in tailoring.
6Pins used in sewing should preferably be:
A.Sharp, fine, and rust-free so they do not mark or damage fabric
B.Thick rusty nails reused from carpentry
C.Plastic only, never metal
D.Always at least 10 cm long for every fabric
Explanation: Fine, sharp, clean pins hold layers without large holes or rust stains. Pin choice also depends on fabric weight.
7On a domestic lockstitch sewing machine, the presser foot mainly:
A.Holds fabric firmly against the feed dogs during stitching
B.Cuts the fabric after each seam
C.Supplies upper thread from the spool alone
D.Measures the garment length automatically
Explanation: The presser foot presses fabric down so feed dogs can advance it evenly while the needle forms stitches.
8Feed dogs on a sewing machine are responsible for:
A.Moving the fabric forward (or reverse) under the presser foot
B.Heating the needle for synthetic fabrics
C.Winding only the upper spool
D.Setting button size automatically
Explanation: Feed dogs are toothed metal bars that rise and move fabric in step with the stitch length setting.
9Before starting the machine, a safe habit is to:
A.Check that fingers and tools are clear of the needle path and foot is down on fabric when sewing
B.Leave scissors under the presser foot for balance
C.Run the machine at full speed with no thread to warm it
D.Hold the needle with bare fingers while it is running
Explanation: Keeping hands and tools away from the moving needle prevents injury. Fabric should be controlled with hands beside the foot, not under the needle.
10If a needle breaks while sewing, the safest immediate action is to:
A.Stop the machine, remove the power/foot control, and carefully collect all needle fragments
B.Continue sewing at higher speed to force the pieces out
C.Blow hard into the bobbin case while the motor runs
D.Ignore fragments because they dissolve in fabric oil
Explanation: Broken needle pieces can injure skin or eyes and damage the machine. Stop, secure power, and remove all fragments before inserting a new needle of correct size.
