Very satisfactory In popular work Of
this kind fs charming linen applique.
The method; OF execution is perfectly
simple. Two pieces Of linen Of contrast
ing colors are laid one above another
and securely tackled together. the de-
sign being traced on. the uppermost
piece, upon which it Is workd out. The
stitches are Of course carried through
both. The working may be slight or
elaborate, according to the taste or In
clination Of the worker. The outline Is
carried out III Arm, close buttonhole
stitch, the filling as fancy dictates. y
When completed, the uppermost layer
Of linen Is cut away all round the de
sign. leaving the lower layer as back
ground. In this part Of the work great
care is of course necessary, as it is
easy to cut the under fabric by mad
vertence. Only the sharpest pointed
scissors should be used, as the outline
must be clearly and Clearly cut. Other
wise there Is little or no difficulty in
the execution Of this exceedingly artis-
tic and pleasing work. .ss:, 4 .a...,': i.
