Abstract
An easy and quick method of placing a stiffening heading to draperies without the use of a sewing machine and the help of pins or staples. The invention discloses the use of any drapery stiffening or heading with at least one and preferably two fine lines of adhesive or glue having a low melting point positioned on the heading parallel to the longitudinal side edge thereof. The drapery fabric or crinoline is joined to one line by heat sealing and then the stiffening is turned inside of the upper end of the fabric and the second line is heat sealed whereby the drapery stiffening is secured in a straight and accurate manner to the top of the fabric whereby the pleats can subsequently be sewn therein.
