The fewer seams, the better. Very, very comfortable ...and such a me- lange of faults can lurk beneath. Try the Kabuki in silk jersey for pure. luxury. To make it easy to sew, stitch over tissue paper. Keeps it from slipping; just tear off afterwards. Or, try the Kabuki in a new tissue batiste for coolness plus. For sheer delight, try voile. What is it? It's a fine delicate- looking cotton made from long, strong fibres grown in Egypt or the South Sea Islands. Light as air, it sheds wrinkles; requires only a brush of the iron. Cool to wear because it's porous and "breathes". Choose a _ dainty baby print for a soft, fragile look reminiscent of Victorian feminity. With the sheer and _ semi- sheer delicate fabrics with us this season, try a narrow French binding around neckline and armholes instead of facings. Cut a true bias strip 6 times the finished width desired. Fold in half lengthwise with right sides out. Stitch raw edges of bias to right side of garment making the seam % the width of the folded bias. Turn folded edge over seam and hand hem in place. Are you the experimenting type?
