OF the fabric, in cutting, stay

ton is essential"
THE secret of this is skill and
manipulation of the fabric and
correct use of pressing tech-
niques."
"A limited range of pattern
styles selected for class use per-
mits more thorough learning and
individuality of each garment is
achieved by varying colors, fab
rics, and trimming detail"
Through greater understands
ing of the structure of the fab
RIGS, more skill can be developed
in handling materials"
Tedious and Unnecessary steps
in construction are eliminated.
Improvised seam guides, machine
basting, machine knotting, and
other simple tricks help some
sewers construct garments with
a minimum of handling"
Basic also to the success of
the technique is the initial selec-
ton of the pattern and altera-
tons necessary for perfect fit.
Unit construction which is simply
the completing and pressing of
all the steps in each part of the
garment before joining to an
other part contributes to efficient
use of time and to fabric fresh
ness"
Progressive learning from an
apron to suit and coat Is an
other fundamental education
principle followed by the Bishop
method"

There Is almost nothing new,

The one shortcoming of the
festival is its lack Of a printed
program. This might destroy
the ad lib, or improvised, charm
Of what amounts to q three

useful to those who are not

There are some such who
