MAKING FOLDS.

ut took me two days to make my
new bingham dress and another two
days for the bias folds to trim it"
declared a girl who is especially clever
in making her own frocks, Il shan't
trim another gown with folds"
And yet these much-used folds are
really very easy to make If one sets
about it automatically.
A favorite method of making foldr
of cloth of heavy wash goods, such as
linen and poplin, is to have the fold
single and then make a narrow hem
on the lower edge. When working
with heavy goods that will not fray,
the material is turned up only once
and stitched fiat.
The upper edges of these folds are
turned in and stitched to the garment
in the same manned as the double
folde. To keep these even and not to
stretch them is not as easy as might
at first be thought. To guard against
a strained or crooked edge turn hem
down once and haste before turning
down the second time.
If these are to be doubled do not for
get to allow the neces sary width, and
in any case allow for turning in the
edges These are basted to garment
along upper edge of fold and stitched
fiat.
Pipings are also a favored form OF
trimming. They are cut on the bias
Directions for cutting folds can be
used for them. They are applied to
edges of folds. tucks, shaped bands
and soft crushed girdles.
The material is held double, basted in
position and then stitched The pieces
used for both folds and pipings are
Joined on the bias, seams opened and
pressed fiat before the material is
doubled or hemmed.
Dressmakers make these trimmings
in long stripes and cut them off as re-
quired.

the coming season. These dresses are
of silk with rather .'nouveau art
