Turn back the edges which you wish to join with the fagotting and press them. In order to keep your edges an even distance apart, pin the two pieces to be joined to a piece of stiff paper, placing the edges one-quarter or one-half inch apart. Knot the end of the thread, and pass the needle from the wrong to the right side of the goods on one of the edges to be joined. Pass the thread diagonally across the space between the two pieces, inserting the needle from the wrong side to the right side of the goods. Pass the needle under the thread and insert it in the upper edge of the material, continuing across the piece as shown in Fig. 5.
