Lay the If you may be about an accompanying: hat fashion: the matching felt, swathed in net or nialine, and the lacy turban of net or frothiest crochet. In the soft pinks, blues, pistachio greens and other pastel colors of sheer wool, the effect Is a new and entrancing "confection" of a hat. The swathed turbans give a wonderful background for the jeweled touch of scatter pins or a single large pin. ice-wo- ol Some of the puffed sleeves will also look peculiar because of their fullness. However, when properly gathered, they are designed to fit. Sleeves should not be fitted high on the shoulder to eliminate the soft fold of the waist at the front and back. The sleeve will tear out. If you have a model, this helps in fitting sleeves. It cannot do the job completely, though. You'll have to try on the garment and move your shoulders and arms about while you check the fit. Mr ; Those wonderfully soft pastel wools that are top favorites for resort wear now have brought Stitch Side Seams Before Joining Waistline To have the waistline fit nrotvr. ly, it's necessary to prefit the gar ment and to prepare the garment properly before joining the hndip with the lower half of the garment. Amateurs frequently feel it is easier to sew the waistline and then follow this by joining the side seams. Well, it certainly is easier to sew this way, but the waistline will rarely fit properly. It is either too high or too low! On some dresses which reauire a stiff waist, you many insert an inner belt to keep the waistline nrm. Among the new sheer dresses now appearing, an elasticized waist is sometimes used so the dress gathers softly and evenly. With an inner belt, join the seam first, then insert the belt, basting it to the seam. Let these Tips Guide When Making Pockets Pockets are not hard to make, and they frequently add value as well as decoration to the garment. Patch pockets, which are fre quently used on house dresses and aprons, children's clothine. and the like, are easiest to make. They must be absolutely true and even. A cardboard pattern is best to use for cutting evenly. Baste before stitching. Top edges of pockets are finished first. In lightweight fabrics, this edge is hemmed. In heavier fabrics, cover the raw edge with seam binding after turning the edge, then hem and pin pocket on the garment Check your accuracy in placing it before stitching. m V t ,w.'i.vJS.

Be certain you include the material for these that there in cutting the sleeve matter no natural shoulder line is being hailed. However, most shoulder lines are improved if a slight padding is inserted to improve shoulder irregularities. The shape of the pad varies with the material used in sewing the garment. The large triangles are used for woolens and some of the stiff, heavy Small, silk and rayon materials. pads are conlong or round-shape- d sidered best for the sheer fabrics, including the sheer woolens which are now so favored. For washable fabrics, you'll find that gathered taffeta serves quite well. Raglan sleeves usually take a pad, with the broad edge wide enough to extend across the shoulder line. Join one point to the shoulder or top of the sleeve while the other points are placed where yoke and sleeve meet. If you have one shoulder higher than the other, make a heavier and larger pad for the lower shoulder to even the shoulder line. how pattern looks. strange THE GARDEN SPOT New Vegetables Add Variely .By Eldred E.
