Too often we are dis appointed In a garment when we have finished it because of puckers or the seams popp ing. Be sure to use fine, sharp pins and needles. Dressmaker pins should be satisfactory. For machine needles use about a size 11. A size 14 machine needle can be used for heavier fabrics. The thread can be merceriz ed cotton or a synthetic such as taslon, nylon or dacron. You might have a difficult time finding nylon or dacron thread since the taslon is the newer development. The size thread should be standard—about size 50 or 60.

Syn thetic blends have less tendency to pucker if the tension on the bobbin and spool are equal. The pressure should be adjusted so that the fabric won’t slip.
