Jean Jumper: A small piece of plastic made to ease sewing seams on denim by holding the presser foot up ever so slightly. Allows the presser foot to "jump" the seam as if it was level with the rest of the denim. Works well with all thick fabrics.
Lettuce (hem, edge): Usually serged edge that is stretch as sewn, resulting in a ruffy edge on the finshed garment. Used to finish the inside of a garment, to hide the seam construction, to allow for ease of putting a garment on or taking it off, and to provide decorative effect. A linin is cut of the same pattern piece as the garment and is often made of :slippery fabric". Usually extends the life of the garment.
