Inexpensivo Mats.

For series of pretty mats fine white
shirting linen is selected, the design
being transferred by using transfer pa
per. This is worked solidly in smooth
satin stitch with two threads OF white
fioselle. Use one thread OF golden yellow
silk for outlining the whole design, with
the same for stem work, or for the
feather edge around the circle. These
designs are suitable also for silk or velvet
to use under vases or bric-a- brac. Fine
twisted silk is used for the embroidery
with gold thread for stems; or, il a more
elegant effect is desired, bullion and GOLD
thread may be used with good effect.
This makes pretty accompaniment 10 a
handsome vase or a Christmas gift-the
mat to be OF heavy silk. The delicate
colors OF the vase may be carried out in
the coloring of the design.
