CONCEAL JOINING OF LACE
Easy to Arrange, Though Much De-

1t is possible to Join lace so tha
Joining is almost entirely concealed

much depending upon the kind of lace
and how it is used.
For yoke or other solid surface
that is to lie fiat it is better to an
pilque the lace together. Cut ont the
design frregularly and Join II TO tbe
uhder piece so that 1t continues the
pattern The edges are buttonholed
sewed or overcast together according
to which stitch shows least. Do tbis
with fine thread and cut awev on
ragged edges.
For firmness it will usually be
found necessary to join the under side
also. In this case make the stitches
on right side small.
where lace is to be Joined for a ruf.
ne the best way 10 do 1t is to button.
mole TIE edges together In the tiniest
possible seam Use fine thread and
do the stitching neatly. This same
method is often used on yokes and for
thin laces is better, perhaps than an.
pnqueing Press the edges open on
right side between thumb and first
hnger SO 1t does not pucker.
Some persons lap the edges of the
lace SO that the wrong side of the left
side lies for about quarter of an inch
upon the right side of the under niece
Both ends are then hemmed In tiny
stitches. This prevents seam, but is
almoet impossible to do without
showing.
Never join lace by sewing in q
French seam. as 1t is entirely toe
bulky, and, no matter how carefully
done. Will not look neat. Above all
do not content yourself with SEWING
in single seam. The edges cur
