A COMPLETE COURSE IN DRESSMAKING
Sometimes bright shades are intermingled as yellow, blue and green.
Drawn Work Insertion: It's easy to gain an elaborate effect in a lingerie blouse
with drawn work insertion. The insertion comes one-eighth inch and one-quarter inch wide and looks like wide hand hemstitching.
It's a pretty addition to a voile or batiste blouse, placed either side of the front closing or between tucks at the side-front of the waist.
In sewing it in, French seam either side of the insertion to the waist, taking very narrow French seams. (See fig. 21.)
