RUFFLES OR FRILLS


RUFFLES :---These are used for the purpose of adding decoration to a garment .

Some times they are used at the hems of the skirts and dresses to

add length to the dress to make frills allow at least 1 1/2 times the

length of the piece to which the frill will be attached . The width of

the frill is usually anything from 1 " to 3" . The longer side should be

cut along the length wise of the material . The gathered edge of the

frill can be conceld in a seam , facing , binding or wide band .
