PAPER PATTERNS.

Have several tiny bags made of strong cloth filled with sand and use them to weight down a paper pattern Instead of pinning it to the cloth when cutting out a garment. It saves much wear and tear on the pattern, and the work of cutting out can be done much more rapidly by their use. Four or five'bags will be required for a pattern of medium size, one being needed at each comer or angle. If when through using the pattern it is pressed out smoothly and rolled around a mailing- tube Instead of being folded to fit the envelope it will be much easier to use next time.
