Renewing Feather 1lek..

When changing feathers from one
ticking to another make the ticking
the size required. leaving an opening
about two feet long at one end. Sew
or baste this opening to the opening in
the old ticking Shake the feathers
from the old to the new tick. Do not
remove all the hastings at once. Sew
the new ticking as you take out the
