French knot Of yellow, and the leaves
and stems are worked with olive green
The only really peculiar fact about
this special design is the color used for
the tiny buds that tip each spray
These in place of being worked with
blue, as they ordinarily are, were
copied direct from nature, and show a
faint old pink tint
The cover is made with a broad hem
stitched hem on all four sides. The
opening is at the back, and closes with
buttons and buttonho1es- Stray bios
SONS are scattered along the hem and a
frill of fine torchon lace completes the
whole.
The embroidered linen should be
1aundried before the lace is whipped
off.
But the baises and the pinks shown
upon the pillows in the second illustra-
ton are worked upon sheer linen
lawn and are used, respectively, over
slips Of pink and blue silk, which give
them a cast of color, but they are of
themselves pure, unlimited white
The daisies are worked with cream
white silk and have shadings OF pale
green gray The centers are fine
French knots, done with yellow, and
the stems, calyxes and leaves are all
olive green. The ribbon is blue, Of the
same shade as the silk slip, and is
worked solid with a single thread Of
h1oselle- The edge of the cover Is
finished with fine frill of the lawn.
The pinlzs are all worked in old pink.
and the slip is of the same shade The
combination so formed of soft, delicious
pink with the tender, pale olive green
Of the leaves is effective. Like the
