Subject: [h-cost] Secondary question - bride ?
Thanks for all your input. I've used that technique for belt loops and
tacking linings in place, but never knew the name "bride", and also never
thought to use it as a reinforcement.
When using it as a neck opening slash reinforcement, do you think that it
would be a short bar attached near the point on both sides, or would it be
worked more like a buttonhole (or half a buttonhole) around the slash
point catching the fabric?
Thanks again,
Kate
I do both. I buttonhole stitch around the point of the slit, and then make
a bride about a 1/4 inch up from the slit.
