The lace on the edge of the ruffles should be sewed on by hand, but it may be stitched flat on the edge with the machine. (School Sewing Based On Home Problems, 1916) If limited in time or working on very inexpensive material, instead of hemming the lace by hand on the right side, it may be stitched by machine [] It is better to use this method only in skirts where the finish is less likely to show from the right side than in waists. (Clothing For Women: Selection, Design, Construction, 1916) I also trimmed the ruffle with cotton Valenciennes lace inserts and pintucks because lace inserts and pintucks were often used together on Edwardian lingerie dresses
