New Looped Coat Sewing Outlined By DOROTHY ROE Associated Press Woman's Editor Whether you call it Empire, Di rectoire, or simply high-waisted, the look (or fall demands a waist line located just under the bust. This trend is repeated in dresses, suits, sportswear and coats and pattern companies have been quirk in present patterns in the new ti'houettes. II you're planning to sew a new coat this fall, select one of the new bubblv fabrics, which seem to SO to perfectly with the Empire look. A looped mohair, for exam ple, in a radient shade of bright blue or green, can meet the chill iest winter winds with nary a shiver. If you select a loopy wool fah lice. local sewing center experta recommend testing the stitching on a swatch of fabric. Generally, for a heavy coating-weight cloth, you should use heavy duty thread, and a size 16 machine needle. Set your machine for 10 slilchei to the inch; select 1 threat just alightly darker than the fabric. A coat is a fairly simple sew ing project, according to women who habitually make their own coats. Kitting problems are cut to a minimum, and it'a possible to accomplish major aavingt by mak ing a coat. A perfect coat pattern for a school miss has an Empire waist line and a flaring skirt. The wide collar may be turned up against the wind and shorter-than-wrist-lenglh sleeves show off pretty gloves. One word of warning, how ever: check pattern length before rutting into your fabric. Chances are the pattern will be too long for today's leggy styles, so alter the pattern for length before rut ting. In this way, you may save enough fabric for a matching hat.
