Unit of Competency | LMTCL1001B - Produce a simple garment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | This unit covers the skills and knowledge to assemble garment components using a domestic machine and operation techniques. | ||
| Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
| Learning Outcomes and Application | The unit applies to selecting fabrics, laying up pattern pieces and cutting and assembling garments in a non-commercial environment.This unit is designed for particular application in a highly supervised environment and is suitable for selection in vocational education and training (VET) in schools programs or where access to volume production and commercial machines and processes are not an option.This unit requires the application of skills associated with communication and problem solving to identify pattern requirements and planning and organising in order to complete garment. Ability to use simple technology will also be required. Self management skills are required to ensure garment meets quality requirements. | ||
| Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |

Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Critical aspects of evidence | Demonstrates skills and knowledge to: read commercially produced patterns and interpret them in order to select appropriate fabric length and type, and lay up and cut garment pieces prepare workstation and work before commencing sewing operations apply non-commercial sewing techniques operate domestic sewing and overlocking machines for operations where the positioning, feeding and handling of work pieces involves directional changes, contouring or stopping points and handling skills required to accommodate different pattern pieces and fabric variations apply appropriate OHS practices. |
Consistency in performance | Consistently applies skills and knowledge when: organising work completing tasks according to instructions working systematically with attention to detail identifying improvements and avoiding damage using workplace practices using OHS practices recording and reporting accidents and incidents assessing operational readiness of equipment recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions |
Resource implications | Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices. |
Context for assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment. |
Interdependent assessment | This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units. |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
Demonstrates knowledge of: techniques in using and maintaining three thread overlocker and domestic sewing machines characteristics of a range of fabrics including lace, woven and knitted fabrics and threads such as denim, single knits, tricot, gabardine quality standards and practices sizing requirements sequence of operations for garment assembly OHS practices, including hazard identification and control measures workplace practices recording and reporting practices |
Demonstrates skills to: accurately use a domestic sewing machine read, interpret and follow information on work specifications, standard operating procedures and work instructions, and other reference material maintain accurate records communicate within the workplace sequence operations meet specifications clarify and check task-related information carry out work according to OHS practices |
The Range Statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the Performance Criteria, is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts. | |
Legislative/regulatory requirements | All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements. |
Garment may include | accessories straight seamed, draw string skirt T-shirt smock dress headwear other garments that require a small range of sewing techniques using domestic machines |
Fabric includes | a range of fabric types including cottons, woollens, synthetics, velvets, lace, stretch, knitted, etc. single and multi directional prints interfacings and linings |
Patterns include | commercially available patterns, stock patterns or individually drafted patterns |
Pattern markings include: | notches darts |
Components may include: | sleeves waistbands - straight or shaped collars cuffs plackets facings - neck, armhole binds zips - dress, skirt, trouser, invisible buttons and buttonholes hems - double fold, rolled, blind, stitched hem |
OHS practices | OHS practices include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit, and may relate to: manual handling techniques standard operating procedures personal protective equipment safe materials handling taking of rest breaks ergonomic arrangement of workplaces following marked walkways safe storage of equipment housekeeping reporting accidents and incidents environmental practices |
Machines may include: | domestic sewing machine three thread overlocker zigzag sewing machine |
Set-up includes: | correct thread, needle size and type, needle guard, tension setting and attachments |
Other equipment may include: | pins scissors needle and thread marker or chalk |
Sewing operations may include: | positioning, feeding and handling of work pieces involving contouring, stopping or handling skills required to accommodate fabric variations gathering, easing, tucking |
Hand sewing includes: | attaching buttons and other closures attaching embellishments such as beading, trims, badges, etc. hemming and overstitching embroidery |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
