Over the Back Fence: Sewing Tips for Refashioning Clothing

Naomi Doebel suggests quick ways to transform simple garments into smarter outfits using white handkerchief collars and triangular jabots. Mothers can salvage old rayon gowns slips or undershirts to create small sizes for children, outlining a practical home solution to supply shortages.

Sewing tips for knits and small craft projects

Frays around cut edges require stitching before assembly. Stretchy rayon jersey seams need longer stitch length and looser tension for stretch. Double stitch for strength and reinforce knitted fabric with woven fabric at button and buttonhole areas. Trims like lace edging and colored buttons add a touch. Press hems from bottom up to avoid bias distortion. Save wooden spools for toy chests or hot dish stands. Use old blocks as pulls. Paint old window frames with prints behind panes for wall display.
