This is Old Moore s zoom year in the prophecy business and it knows how to deal witn skeptics.

The "Quilted Fashion" is expected to hit a new high, carrying over from spring into summer! This fashion has really "caught on" Women like it! It was not designed only for cold weather a survey shows that women prefer it in the south even in warm weather. Quilted dresses, jackets, and vests are designed for every occasion sports, afternoon and evening wear. Capes, coats and evening wraps are being added to many of the spring and summer lines. You can find just about any combination of fabrics in this fashion that you want. It gained popularity in the cotton field, but now you can find crisp silks and rayons too, in every solid shade of the rainbow. Some are printed, the gold printed designs proving very popular. You'll find glistening white quilted skirts studded with brilliants, and some with an added painted or embroidered decorative design. . If you enter into the spirit of the 'quilted fashion," we have a' recommendation to make and a reason for making it: - In making a quited fabric, a filling called "batting" is placed be tween two separate and distinct fabrics. It is held in place by a quilt ing thread.The quilt stitching may be in a variety of patterns or de signs, but it is done for one purpose ... to achieve that "puffed" look. To maintain the resilience of the batting . . to retain that quilted . effect... have your garment cleaned and finished by a professional cleaner. Our modern steam-air finishing equipment is so designed that the fabric can be steamed and finished without the use of pressure. Home pressing will flatten the fabric and destroy the appearance you 'iked when you bought the garment. MEDFORD CLEANERS 34 N. Holly Phone 2-6500 for Free Pickup and Delivery Joe E.
