OFFERED NOW AT THE LOWEST PRICE IN YEARS1 Pinked Seams Are Easiest For Many Spring Fabrics By Mrs. Genevieve Smith This is a season of sheer, open weave fabrics, many of them stiffened, but this need not pose any seam prob- ...... iem lo you as a home dress maker. A good pair of pinking shears is one of your best an swers. The very sheer, stiffened fabrics do not take kindly to double seam ing, such as the French seam. Mrs. Smith because their weight and heavy look are too noticeable in the very thin material. Yet some of these fabrics have a tendency to ravel if left raw. But if the material is cut with pinking shears, you achieve an edge that holds its shape without ravel ing, thus making a single stitch i j satisfactory. When the seam is pressed open, this type of edge is less noticeable than any other. Pinked edges art equally sat isfactory with many types ot airs, suupa x rurvine sum in- i vited members of her knitting club I brings caringf for your r- Ml Also available In: 51 gauge, 30 denier heavier goods where the seam ing is not to be top stitched for the sake of the tailored effect. They are especially good with fabrics subject to raveling, such. as some of the rayons. When it cones to choosing pinking shears, youll find some that have been built especially for the great variety of dress fabrics now being used. One brand of shears that is in wide distribution has paid special at tention to this matter by build ing in oil Impregnated ball bearings. This principle makes for better adjustability to the thickness of the fabric better balance, and eliminates the need for oiling. They are versatile enough to cut both plastic and nylon. Whenever your pinking shears become dull, the best practice is to return them to the manu facturer . for sharpening. The cost is small, and you are assur ed of service by experts who know the needs of those par ticular shears. Ordinary shears can be sharpened by a compe tent scissors grinder, of course.
