  3. The garment manufacturing method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the dimension of openings of cuffs (32) of the sleeve members is smaller than the dimension of openings of armholes (34) of the sleeve members, and in the first formation process, from the third sheet material and the fourth sheet material transported in a first direction in the superimposed state are alternately formed a first sleeve member where the cuff is disposed on one end side in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and a second sleeve member where the cuff is disposed on the other end side in the second direction.
  4. The garment manufacturing method of claim 3, further comprising a first placement process of placing, with respect to the transported third sheet material, elastic materials (E) on both end portions thereof in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the third sheet material is transported, and a second placement process of placing, with respect to the transported fourth sheet material, elastic materials (E) on both end portions thereof in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the fourth sheet material is transported.
  5. The garment manufacturing method of claim 4, wherein the elastic materials are placed on both the parts of the sleeve members that become the cuffs and the parts of the sleeve members that become the armholes, and the garment manufacturing method further comprises a cutting process of cutting the elastic materials that are attached to the parts of the sleeve members that become the armholes.
  6. The garment manufacturing method of any one of claims 1 to 5, further comprising a joining process of joining the first sheet material and the sleeve members and joining the second sheet material and the sleeve members before joining the first sheet material and the second sheet material.
  7. The garment manufacturing method of any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein end portions of shoulder parts (26) of the garment on the sleeve member sides are disposed closer to a bottom of the garment than are end portions of the shoulder parts of the garment on a neckline (24) side of the garment, and in the second formation process, the first sheet material and the second sheet material are cut in conformity with the shapes of at least parts of the shoulder parts on the outer edge of the garment.
  8. The garment manufacturing method of any one of claims 1 to 7, further comprising a folding process, executed after the second formation process and before the separation process on the first sheet material and the second sheet material transported in a third direction in the superimposed state, in the folding process, the first sheet material and the second sheet material being folded along the third direction so that both end portions of the first sheet material and the second sheet material in a direction orthogonal to the third direction being folded inward.
  9. The garment manufacturing method of any one of claims 1 to 8, further comprising a reversal process, executed before superimposing the sleeve members that have been formed by the first formation process with the first sheet material in the first superimposition process, in the reversal process, the sleeve members being reversed to thereby dispose on the inside the surfaces of the sleeve members being disposed on the outside during the first formation process.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a garment manufacturing method. BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a method of manufacturing a garment such as a protective apparel cover or a surgical gown, a manufacturing method such as described in JP 6762991 B2 has been known. JP 2000 170011 A, which discloses the preamble of claim 1, discloses a jacket comprising a right and left sleeve members of the same shape and side having sleeve attaching parts at the top edge side and arm holes 4b at the bottom edge side, a front body part member which has a right and a left side edges extending between the top and the bottom edges and a pair of arm holes at both ends of the top edge part and is located at the abdominal region side of a jacket wearer and a rear body part member which has a right and a left edges extending between the top and the bottom edge parts, a pair of arm holes at both sides of the top edge part and is located at the back part of a wearer. The peripheral parts of the sleeve attaching parts of the right and left sleeve members are stuck fast to the peripheral parts of the arm holes of the front and rear body parts. The front and rear body part members are mutually stuck fast along right and left side edges of the members with slightly leaving the right and left side edges of the members and are mutually stuck fast at the top edge parts extending between an opening around a neck and the right and left sleeve members. SUMMARY OF INVENTION Technical Problem The garment disclosed in JP 6762991 B2 is manufactured by curvilinearly sewing plural members such as a front panel, two rear panels, a collar, sleeves, and cuffs. For that reason, the method of manufacturing the garment disclosed in JP 6762991 B2 is complicated and unsuitable for mass production. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a garment whose manufacturing method is relatively simple and which can be efficiently manufactured. Solution to Problem A method of manufacturing a garment of the present invention includes a first transport process, a second transport process, a first formation process, a first superimposition process, a second superimposition process, a second formation process, and a separation process. In the first transport process, a first sheet material for forming a first member that is one of a front body and a back body is transported. In the second transport process, a second sheet material for forming a second member that is the other of the front body and the back body is transported. In the first formation process, tubular sleeve members are formed by superimposing a transported third sheet material and a transported fourth sheet material, partially joining the third sheet material and the fourth sheet material transported in the superimposed state, and cutting them in predetermined positions. In the first superimposition process, the transported first sheet material and the sleeve members are superimposed. In the second superimposition process, the transported first sheet material and the transported second sheet material are superimposed so that the sleeve members superimposed with the first sheet material are disposed between the first sheet material and the second sheet material. In the second formation process, the first sheet material and the second sheet material transported in the superimposed state are partially joined in conformity with the shape of the outer edge of the garment. Furthermore, in the second formation process, the first sheet material and the second sheet material transported in the superimposed state are partially cut in conformity with the shape of the outer edge of the garment. In the separation process, the garment that has been formed by the second formation process is separated from the first sheet material and the second sheet material. Advantageous Effects of Invention In the method of manufacturing the garment pertaining to the present invention, the garment can be manufactured by a relatively simply process, and the garment can be efficiently manufactured. Furthermore, in the method of manufacturing the garment pertaining to the present invention, the sleeve members are disposed between the first sheet material for forming the first member and the second sheet material for forming the second member, so the sleeve members and the part that becomes the outer surface (front surface) of the front body can be covered by the back body. For that reason, in the method of manufacturing the garment pertaining to the present invention, a hygienically excellent garment, capable of reducing the occurrence of a situation where the sleeve members and the outer surface of the front body of the manufactured garment are touched by a person's hands for example and become contaminated, can be manufactured.
