LACE APPLICATION

Attaching laces or trims adds a

special touch to lingerie, dresses, or

linens. Pin or baste laces in place

easing or mitering corners where

necessary.

A straight edged lace or braid has a

convenient line to follow when sew­

ing. (Fig. 79) When using a scallop­
ed edged lace follow the design of ■

the lace for an almost invisible
application. (Fig. 80)

FLUTTER HEM

An unusual way of hemming or
finishing edges of tricot or soft

knits is by a flutter edge. Hemming

in this manner is just like over­

casting an edge, but the fabric is
stretched in back and in front of
the needle as you sew. For best

results, pull the fabric equally,

making sure the needle goes over

the edge. (Fig. 81) When you stop’
to reposition your hands, keep the
needle in the fabric. (Fig. 82)
