NEEDLEW0RK NOTES.

When altering blouse, it is a mis-
take to move the shoulder seam to the
front A better plan Is to let 1t drop
backward instead Of forward
a thin silk o. one that trays easily
can be cut out better If laid between
sheets OF thin paper and the pattern
cut through paper and material to-
gether
A collar lining Of taffeta should be
cut 50 that the front part is on the
straight Of the material and the curv-
ed part Of the collar viii then come on
the bias
To strengthen shirt buttonholes
stitch them round with cotton after
they are finished They viii then last
much longer and not tear away from
the material.
1t is good plan TO bend steels or
whalebones at the waist line when
making bodice before putting them
into the castings. as the bodice Will
then fit closer to she figure.
After stitching down a seam press
with hot iron. and If no seam board
IS at hand it is useful to know that a
rolling pin wrapped in clean cloth
viii answer the purpose equally well.
IN sewing a piece of material on the
bias to a straight piece the former is
apt to become stretched. To avoid this
the bias should be placed underneath.
and 1t viii then be sewed in evenly.
In making a blouse too deep a round
must net be cut for the neck at the
outset. It IS better TO try it on first
and then outline a semiclrcle in front
with row Of pins. cutting It evenly
on fiat surface.
