Ilque, galatea, coarse and heavy linens
ana the various linen substitutes. as
well as any wash materials which have
much dressing should be shrunk before
beng cut. One of the most satisfactory
ways OF shrinking material for a dress
IS to leave it folded as it comes from
the shop, end soak il over night in a
tub OF tepid water. Then hang it on the
line, by one of the selvedge edges. Care
must be taken to stretch it lust as
smoothly as possible. If the material
has colors which are apt to run, the pre-
caution of using a salt water solution
should, of course, be taken. When the
material is shrunk and dried, ones work
is not done, for the ironing process is
quite as important. The goods should be
lroned on the wrong side. and ironed
perfectly smooth and perfectly dry. Then
it should not be handled for an hour or
two.
If braid, tape or embroidery is to he
used as trimming. it is we'll to take the
precaution of shrinking it, else after the
garment is laundered there will be I'M
slightly 'puckerings" here and there. If
the wash material is one of the softer
Weaves-such as cotton wolfe, batiste, or
candle or handkerchief linen-it is never
wise to shrink the goods before sewing
If these materials are shrunk, it is quite
impossible to cut out a garment salts
foctorily and the sewing process is rem
dered most trying.
