Make Clothing to
Save Time, Money
More for the money That’s
what you get when you make
your children’s clothes
It takes less time to make
make children’s clothes than it
does to make adult clothing,
points out Bernice J Tharp, ex
tension clothing specialist of the
Pennsylvania State University.
You can get better material and
construction by sewing at home.
To speed up the job, select
patterns with as few pieces as
possible. Learn to use the flat
method of construction which
enables you to let out the gar
ment at side seams.
