Contrasts in Fabrics

The use of two fabrics in one costume, when they are happily chosen, Is at tractive to the eye and to the sense of economy, for the scant models of the past few seasons have allowed little op- portunity for making over without the addition of some other material. Con- trasts are sought in fabric and often in color, and best of all, the sleeves, all ways difficulty in the remodeling prob lem, are seen in two fabrics. A navy blue serge, for example, may have little jacket effects of black silk on the waist, and the upper portion of the sleeves will be of the black silk, with the lower of the serge. Some sort of shaping will be given the joining edges, to suggest an intentional, and not a pieced-out eff
 feet. Remodeling is largely matter of cutting the coat according to the cloth, but many highly original effects are born of the planning contingent upon miss
 ing corner on an otherwise satisfactory piece of cloth. Many of the late winter models show so much in the way of chemisettes, cross-over bands, vest edges, plastron and. panel and girdle that, with these models in mind, the ann ateur dressmakeE must exercise discre- ton to avoid the effect of scraps and patches. That all men do not think alike saves life from a dull monotony, and there is the same gracious relief in

This stitching finishes the pocket-open- ing and also holds the two ends of the strip of drilling, making pocket five inches square.
 If the cloth is not very stout the fronts of the knickers may be lined with lining material cut to the same shape, but If this is not necessary small stay piece of lining should be pasted at the crotch on each of the four sections; 1t is shown on the left-front in the first illustration. Here also is shown the facing in which the buttonholes are to be worked and the facing piece of lining that must be scanned to the cloth first. There were three of these cut in lining and two in cloth. Lay one of the lining pieces on the edge of the cloth section and facing it, with the notch in both cor responding. Stitch seam at the edge from the top of the section to the notch. Turn the lining-piece under to the wrong side and haste the edge. Join one of the lining pieces to one of the cloth facing pieces in the same way. Stitch 1t at the pasted edge, then baste 1t in place to the front The buttonholes may be worked III 1t before or after it is applied. Illustration II shows the right-front with the underlap applied to IL. AAio l4iiNNlihP 10 NOAllCOoOd OI d SIOlll and lining section scanned together at the outer edge, not on the curved side. The curved edge of the cloth facing is scanned to the front edge of the trousers section, from the waist to the notch, the seam pressed open; then the lining piece is turned under at its curved edge and pasted over the pressed-open seam. On this underlap the buttons are to be sowed to correspond with the buttonholes in the facing. The inch or so on both underlap and facing, from the notch to the lower end, is left loose, and is later included in the seam that joins the two leg portions together.
 Now, with the hip-pocket in place and the facings on both front portions, is the time to insert the side pockets A nar- row facing of cloth must be pasted to the inside of the pocket-edge that is to be joined to the front; the correspond ing facing for the back was cut in one with the back portions as narrow ex- tension at the, top of each. Both these facings are for the purpose of conceal ing the drilling at the poclet-opening Seam the faced side of the pocket to the

the cloth, or lining the same color, to
 avoid showing a line of white drilling.
 The facing at the top of the knickers may be made wide enough to extend be- low the belt, and in that case 1t will
 cover the canvas and make neat in-
 side finish for the work on the hip
 pocket. If the facing is only the width
 of the belt, the canvas and pocket-top
 should be trimmed and neatly over handed. Illustration III shows the ir-
 side finish with the narrow facing.
 Make line of machine stitching, from the outside, at the lower edge of the
 belt. The belt may be tackled to the
 facing between the buttonholes, and the facing at the left-front should be sirni- 1arly tackled. Hem the lower end of each
 trousers leg and insert a piece of flat elastic in the hem. Have the elastic tight enough to avoid slipping down. but not sufficiently tight to interfere with cir culation. If the knickerbockers are made of galatea, brown Holland or other ma terial that will be laundered, the elastic must be removed before the krfickers are rubbed. To facilitate replacing, a good plan will be to sew hook on one end and an eye on the other of the elastic. The knickers may be gathered into band to button below the knee. The band should be made long enough to lap at least an inch, and the leg-seam on the outside should be left open; per- haps two inches make the banded open ing large enough for the foot to slip through. The band is made double and about three-quarters of an inch wide when finished. The lower edge of each knicker leg is gathered, and the edge slipped between the two fo1d-edges of the band, which is then stitched.

this undertaking is given, and from it three pieces of lining Boys clothing always laps, in closing, from left to right.
 The position of the hip-pocket is indi- cated in the pattern by perforations. There Is also dart at the top of each back portion. The perforations must be transferred to the cloth by making a chalk mark through each; then, when the pattern is removed, go over these chalk dots with tailors' tacks, that will mark the outline of the dart-seam on both pieces. Mark the pocket position at the same time. Both darts are to be taken up, but the pocket is made in the right side only. Stitch the darts and press the seam open, though I do not advise cutting the dart It is easy to press the seam open without Cut a piece of the same cloth an inch and one half wide and one inch longer than the marked length for the pocket. Lay it on the outside of the right-hand back portion, over the pocket-mark. From the underside make a line of basting stitches along the pocket-mark and through both pieces of cloth. To the underside baste piece of canvas of, corresponding size and in the same posi- ton. From the outside make row Of machine stitching at each side of the marking basting and as close to it as possible-rlot more than one-eighth Of an inch. The stitching is made at the sides only, not across the ends. Tie the ends of the threads securely, cut along the marking-line with a pair of sharp scissors and push through the opening so made the applied piece of cloth, al lowing a welt-edge of 1t to extend be- yond the stitching-line at each edge of the pocket opening.

edges of the drilling pocket and stitch together through the two fold-edges, leaving the raw edges inside the pocket. Stitch the inside leg seams, and press them open. Join the two leg sections together by scanning from the notch at the lower edge of the front facing to the waist at the back. Press the seam open, and, on the inside, baste strip of tape or of lining over the pressed-open seam, then from the outside make row of stitching at each side of the seam.
 Cut the belt, of drilling, marking the positions for the buttonholes. Fold the belt lengthwise through the center, turn under the raw edges and baste together through the fold-edges, making the belt double with the seams inside. Face the top of the lnickers with piece of lining material. Let the facing extend to the edge of the under1ap on the right front, but on the left slip 1t under the edge of the facing. Measure the belt to the in side of the waist-line of the knickers, and observe that the marks for the but tonholes come in the correct places On the right front, buttonhole should be even with the seam that joins the under lap to the front portion. The fifth but tonhole should be even with the center back seam. The ready-made knickers fasten at the front of the waist with wide hook and eye-a kind sold for the urpose-although the so-called seal hooks, used for closing fur garments, may be used. If either is difficult to get, the closing may be made with but ton and buttonhole, the latter worked in the end of the belt. When the hook IS used it is sewed between the belt and the outside, leaving only the hook part extended beyond the cloth. The eye portion is inserted in the seam that joins the underlap to the right-front, the seam being ripped a space for that purpose. The closing will look better if the end of the belt on the left side be faced with

 New Spring Fou1ards
 As rich as brocades are the foulards icing made up for Palm Beach and other southern wear during the earlysmonths. A charming model in gray-green foulard $ illustrated here, the bodice having a Trimming of silver embroidered banding over green satin and the little yoke being ,f silver net over green chiffon. The green cord ornament across the bust Iuggests the Egyptian winged hawk motif.
 Simplicity of Line
 Early Spring models in tailored wear Ihow simplicity of line together with elaboration of decoration. On the grace tul suit of "dead" rose broadcloth in the picture the braiding of soustache does iot at all interfere with the elegant sim ,licity of line.
 Very bride-like is the dainty frock of white satin meteor, with draped bo- lice and overskirt in graceful effect as ;hown III the illustration. The feature ,f the little dress is the white lace scarf, draped over the shoulders in fichu .ffect and, confined at the waist under pearl clasp, falling in sash ends over he skirt.
 January the Turning Point
 This is probably the one month in the rear when fashions receive least atten- ion, yet 1t is the turning point, we might ay, of the fashion year. February ,rings displays of spring and summer materials, and the models for their naking7up are already being prepared. Fashion designers live i'll a topsy-turvy world, where fur models are fitted and perfected in July and dirnities and or .andies grow into gowns with equal indifference to snow and ice. Lighter abrics will require appropriate treat nent, and tunics and over-draperies, real md simulated, may be expected.

effects Such scarf is illustrated on this page. There is no fitting or shaping, just length {usually about three yards) of the chosen material in full width. Smaller scarfs of satin with edging and lengthwise stripes of marabout or fur are worn as neckpieces, and have large, flat muffs to match. A very pretty form of net scarf has the ends decorated with simple geometrical sort of design, worked in coarse chain stitch with em- broidery silk; other scarfs are made of alternate rows of ribbon and lace. A form of scarf that may be arranged as unique dress garniture is divided in half and each end is gathered into the end of band that is about five inches wide and eight inches long. This band is of some handsome trimming or of the scarf material embroidered or braided. There are several ways to arrange 1t on the waist. One is to place the narrow band at the front, carry the scarf ends back under the arms, cross them at the back and bring them over the shoulders to the front again, where they should be slipped under the front part of the scarf and fall, one at each side, in straight down line. The arrangement might be reversed, and in either case novel, jacket-sort of arrangement would re- suit.
 Coats will grow shorter, as is to be expected for spring and evidenced by some exceedingly early models. but 1t seems more than probable that the long, straight cape-cloaks, so well liked this autumn, will reappear, for a time at least. Moire and bengaline have been so successfully used for coats that they are rather certainty for the spring. A very limited trial was made this fall of tailored coat and skirt suits of foulard silk. They were so very successful that we may expect to hear more of them Foulard and the Rajah weaves own the field for any sort of dress suit as the days grow warmer There are still many cold days to come, however, and foulards and Rajahs need not come into the story yet, except that anyone with the comforting knowledge that she has one or the other hanging safely and comfortably away may bear 1t in mind for possible re-development of some model that may attract. In woolens for spring the tendency is toward rougher surfaces, but for general wear serge, with hard rather than a soft cheviot finish, is to be preferred, and these, with bananas and mohair, will be by no means neglected among the materials of moderate price. Navy blue and black continue to be the most popular coIors, and for spring gray and gray effects are promised.

 the pockets in boys and mems
 = clothing IS mysterious pro- tess, unfathomable by the amateur. Be- :ause of this mistaken notion 1 have seen told that some unhappy small boys Ire doomed to a pocketless condition when their knickers are of home make. Such state of affairs demands instant remedy, and illustrated proof that put ing in the pockets is really simple natter. The hip-pocket might be spared, put the side-pockets-neve The first Illustration shows how these are pre- pared. Drilling is the best material for .hese pockets, as they need to be strong. A piece about ten inches square Is folded n half, forming pocket five inches wide and ten inches deep. Pin one of hese to each front section of the knick- .rs, and trim the edges to the same shape as the cloth edge, which usually ,lopes in a trine toward the waist-line, md make at the edge the notches that indicate the length of the pocket-open- ng. The lower edge may be left straight or one corner may be rounded, IS shown in the illustration. If the hip pocket be made, it should be inserted in sher ight-hand back portion before that Is joined to any other; in fact, that is the solution of the only difficulties in rousers-rnaking- order of procedure. The hip-pocket is placed first, then the facing on the fronts, next the side pockets, then the outside leg-seams fol- lowing these the inside leg-seams, then the seam joining the two 1eg-sections and finally the top-facing, the belt and ,he lower end of each leg For boys of sight years and over the trousers are usually made to button down the front, with an underfacing Gin which button holes are worked) on the left side and m underlap, to which the buttons are sewed, on the right-front.

difference is that the shirt-waist sleeve is not used, something of more dress ef- feet being substituted. Usually it takes the form of a fitted sleeve with hori- zontal tucks, in size from one-eighth tt, one-half an inch, and in any sort of grouping choice may suggest. Bands of cloth and soutache braiding trim these waists, and the entire color scheme is in one and matches the skirt. The waists are lined throughout with white net, in plain blouse shape, the object being greater strength and wearing quality. Waists of taffeta and of mes- saline are also being shown in simple models and with rather full braiding de- signs applied to the front, strongly sug- gestive of the embroidery on lingerie waists.
