DEEP-PILE FABRICS (Fake Fur)
• Pin, rather than baste, seams. Place
pins at close intervals at right angles
to the seam line. Pins with colored
heads are easy to see gnd remove.
• Sew in direction of nap.
• Stitch with a fairly long machine
stitch(2,5to3mm)and use polyester/-
cotton thread in a size 90 or 100
Type 705 H needle.
• As seam is stitched, smooth pile away
from seam allowance with a darning
needle or upholstery pin.
• After stitching seams with a 1.5 cm
seam allowance, use small hand
scissors to shear pile from entire se
am allowance to reduce bulk.
• Stitch 6 mm pre-shrunk tape into
neckline and shoulder seams for sta
bility and reinforcement or stitch
with the straight stretch stitch.
• Leather and leather-look fabrics com
plement fur fabrics; use them for bound
buttonholes and easy button loops.
• Coat hems are less bulky If they are
narrow and finished with a 8 cm fa
bric facing or grosgrain ribbon.
• Slash through the center fold of darts
and finger-press open, or stitch with a
narrow zig-zag stitch and trim away
excess fabric after stitching.
