To Make Sewing Easy A small cake of white soap ' kept in the machine drawer is a great saver of machine needles and makes sewing easier. When a thick place, such as the cross ing of two seams, is reached in stitching, rub the material with the soap, and the needle will pass through it as if by magic, without breaking or even bend ing. This treatment is particu larly valuable when one is stitch ing sheer lawns or mouselines and using a tine needle.
