HOW TO MAKE DRESSES
The bow and streamers come at the center-front.
If you want to finish a sash at a side closing, make a single loop and one end as shown in Fig. 25. Finish the back edge of the girdle with a hem. Loop the front end, as shown in Fig. 26, running a gather-thread across. Wrap the free end around the loop and tack at the bottom of the girdle. (See Fig. 27.)
Where the girdle fastens at the center-back, finish it with a bow knot. A made-knot is more effective than a tied one. (See Figs. 28, 29, 30 and 31.)
