linen one yard wide. Cut twenty-nine
inches for the front, twenty-five for
the back breadths Zone width makes
the two backs, twenty-five inches for
each sleeve. This leaves piece from
which can be cut three-inch strip for
the collar and two pieces nine by
eleven and one-half inches for the deep
cuffs. Care should be taken not to set
the design on the front too high up;
one does not realize how much goes
into the shoulder or how deep the neck
must be cut out; an ample allowance
must be made. On hand-embroldered
waist the tucking should be done by
hand. A combination of machine
tucks and hand embroidery is never
happy. Hemstitched tucks are pretty,
as in our examples of the coarser lineu
waist, and the one with the peacock
design. n.-Harper's Weekly.
