An assembly system is provided for connecting together a plurality of flexible construction pieces (14,15) using an elongate connecting element (16), in particular a lace, that can be threaded through a series of loop formations (10,11) provided along the edges of the construction pieces and secured. The system can be used for making articles including clothing, cushions and bags. The loop formations may be in the form of closed loops formed along edges of two flexible construction pieces, such as panels for an item of clothing. The lace may be connected at one end to one of the panels and the free end of the lace is attached to the other panel after threading through the loops. The loops may be integral to the panel or may be formed from looped material sewn thereto. The free end can be attached by a stopper (25, 26) and hole 12 arrangement or by a clip or hook (31). The system may also include an elongate needle which is removeably fastened to the free end for threading of the lace. |
