seen the surface Is we'll covered, the
squares formed by the triangles very
nearly meeting In the centre. The OUTSIDE
edges are all couched with gold. and the
suede IS cut away within the mould. SO
that the open-work stitching has a very
long and dainty effect. The couched edges
are cut on the outside OF all the forms
that make the border.
The one objection that could b. made
10 this this work in bronzes is that or
cost. for although the price of the bronze
thread is small for each spool, they con-
tain very little and IL requires great
many TO complete the work. The couch
ing-cord sells for ten to twenty-five cents
a skein. according to the size; each skein
contains only few yards.
A less costly method of carrying out
the same design is that OF using heaVy
i,nitting-silks in place of bronze thread,
and cloth in place of suede and velvets.
