Abstract
This invention describes a process for applying a reinforcing or stiffening strip such as buckram or PELLON (Reg. trademark of the Pellon Corp., New York, N.Y.) to a panel of drapery material directly without the necessity of premarking, measuring, and stitching. This is accomplished by the step of adhesively securing the strip of reinforcing material to the bottom edge of a drapery panel suspended vertically from the hem end. Thereafter, the panel and the reinforcing strip adhesively secured thereto is folded over itself and the reinforcing strip, sandwiched between the two layers of drapery panel is secured thereto in the form of a reinforced heading. The step of securing the reinforcing strip in sandwiched position between the two layers of paneled material may be by means of stapling, adhesive means or by stitching.
