Making Your Own
Clothes Can Save Money
Sewing your own fashions can save money
and still achieve the looks you want when
techniques include some professional
touches says Becky Saunders, a clothing
specialist on the home economics staff of the
Texas Agricultural Extension Service The
Texas A&M University System.
You can save about two-thirds on the
purchase cost of a ready-made by selecting
a similar quality fabric and garment design
and sewing the fashion yourself, she adds.
The quality of the home-sewn garment is
important, and sleeves are one area that
can pose problems, so stash a few sewing
tricks up your sleeves, Saunders advises.
Depending on fabric and garment design,
the following timesaving suggestions may
be helpful when setting sleeves in your
home-sewn garment:
Make a self-lined sleeve if the sleeve has a
straight hemline and no cuffs.
Any see-through patterned fabric, like
lace or brightly printed voile, may need to
be lined with a solid fabric to enhance the
design.
To self-line the sleeve, fold the pattern on
the hemline and cut with the hemline on the
fold of the fabric (Fig. 1).
Join the double sleeve along the underarm
seam with right sides together (Fig. 2).
Trim seam allowance and press open. Turn
the double sleeve up along the hemline and
press.
Use ease stitches to set in the sleeve and
continue according to the pattern guide
sheet (Fig. 3).
Use a quick ready-to-wear method to hem
sleeves of any length if the hem allowance
follows the shape of the sleeve.
This method will not work on bulky
fabrics as the seam allowances will be
turned in one direction.
Cut the sleeve as normal, finishing edge of
hem allowance as needed. Turn up on the
hemline and press (Fig. 4). Pin the un-
derarm seam together and before stitching,
fold up the hem on the hemline, so the un-
derarm seam and hem are stitched at one
time (Fig. 5). Turn the hem right side out
along the hemline. The hem now turns up in
the finished position.
Sew sleeve hem as appropriate and
continue according to the pattern guide
sheet (Fig. 6).

SIBLING RELATIONSHIPS
How your child gets along with her
siblings can make the difference in whether
your family life is orderly (relatively
speaking), or chaotic. It can also influence
whether you are able to enjoy your children,
or find them draining.
Your child's sibling relationships are
important to her now and in the future.
They will set many of her life patterns for
how she will deal with others who are close
to her. And they will strongly affect her
feelings about herself.
Her interactions with her brothers and
sisters can be stormy or loving or angry,
cooperative or competitive and often all
within a brief time period. The following
are a few guidelines from Growing Child,
the monthly child development newsletter,
to help you help your growing child to get
along as harmoniously as possible-as often
as possible-with her siblings.
1) Try not to compare this child with your
other children. They are different people.
Each has his or her own ways of reacting to
the things that happen. Each has special
strengths and weaknesses. Each has his
own rate of growth and his own pace of
doing things. Each child is drawn to dif-
ferent activities, things, and people.
It is natural to compare the times at which
your first and second children walked,
talked, or were toilet trained. It's un-
derstandable to wonder why your third child
afraid of the water when your first two
learned to swim when they were infants.
But it's important to let each child be her-
self.
Notice the things that make each of your
children unique, and encourage them to
develop their own special talents. Accept
your children's differences and you will help
them to accept themselves and each other.
2) Try to spend time each day alone with
each of your children. If you can arrange it,
it would be good to set aside at least ten or
fifteen minutes a day that each child can
look forward to and count on as his or her
own special time with you.
For example, you might plan to spend
fifteen minutes each afternoon with your
pre-schooler, while her little brother takes
his nap. Or you might give your oldest
fifteen minutes in the evening after the
younger ones are in bed. If you can't do this
regularly each day, then try to find a
regular schedule you can stick to at least
once a week.
This "special time" should be that child's
time with you to use as she wishes. You can
offer a story, a game, or simply an un-
derstanding ear, but let her choose. These
special times with you will help you get to
know and enjoy each of your children more
while you help them each to feel special to
you. You may find that this gives you more
time for yourself, too, as your children stop
competing for your attention at other times.
3) Try to provide your children with op-
portunities for cooperating with each other
in planned activities or daily routines. For
example, when you go to the supermarket,
you can have the youngster who is sitting in
the grocery cart look for one item you need
in each aisle, and then have another child
get it and hand it to the child in the cart.

The Moreno-Chapa
Family
Or you can ask your older child to teach
.""X your toddler how to use the toilet when he's
l> 'ready. In addition, be sure to notice and
compliment your children any time you see
Vthem working and playing together
cooperatively: "Tommy, thank you for
helping Michelle get dressed. You're really
a help to me." "Angela and Ann, I'm so
[glad to see you're enjoying playing dress-up
together."
4) Set limits that you think are fair for
each of your children. Let your children
know what the limits are and what the
consequences of breaking them will be.
Then try to stick to these rules as well as you
can, changing them (with your children's
knowledge) when they no longer seem
appropriate.
This kind of "planning ahead" can avoid
many fights and jealousies over such things
as who goes to bed at what time and who
gets to do what. You will probably still get
some protests of "It's not fair that I can't
stay up as long as she does!'' and so on. But
it is fair for children of different ages to
have different limits, privileges, and
responsibilities. When they know what to
expect, each child can look froward to
growing, into new ones.
5) Try to plan time for the family to meet
together. It might be a good idea for family
members to talk together about things that
are important to them personally, and as a
already do this informally, at mealtimes or
at special family times you share on
weekends.
Sometimes it's hard to get everyone
together at the same time, especially if you
work odd hours or if your children are in-
volved in many different activities. It's
important to try to have some time together
though-just to enjoy each other's company.
Also, each family member has respon-
sibilities to the family, as well as ex-
pectations and needs of it. These can be
worked out to mutual satisfaction when the
family gathers together and tries to support
and understand each other.
For example, if squabbles occur
frequently between siblings over household
duties, this might be discussed at a family
meeting. Sometimes it helps to make up a
chart listing each family member's duties
for the week or month. Then hoasehold
tasks nobody likes can be assigned on a
rotating basis.
The attempts and perseverance in trying
to resolve matters constructively and
supportively in a family provide a good
example for your growing child-a model of
what a family can do for one another, and
how to foster this mutual understanding.
Allowances for the children is another
common topic of discussion for a family
meeting. This can sometimes be a source of
rivalry between older and younger children.
Again, you can help each child to un-
derstand why they get the amount they do.
At the same time, you can explain a little
about what it costs you to run the household,
including food, clothes, and other things
they need. This might help them un-
derstand the family's economic situation
and their part in it-a helpful lesson for their
future.
In addition to using the family meeting
time to work out problems, you can use it to
help your children understand and like each
other better. Give each child, even the
youngest, a time to express himself or
herself. Try to pay equal attention to each
child, even the quietest. Show interest in
what each child shares. Try to keep any one
child from monopolizing the conversation;
be kind and supportive but firm about giving
each person an opportunity. The children
will learn from your example (in time, if not
right away) to respect each other as you
respect each of them.
