Lace MeddIhonS

This is the time or year when needle
women are busy making lingerie waists
for the summer, and any suggestion
as 10 the arranging of lace and inser-
ton should be very welcome.
In making bow knots or flowers of in
sertion for medalhons It IS necessary to
have each the same shape and the same
size. This is very easily done by piac~
ing the first one made on a piece Of
brown paper and cutting out the pattern
OF the outline. After that the others
may De made by sewing the lace to the
pap2r, and, after lacking X together.
Inning the paper away. This viii In
sure each medallion being identical and
will save much time for the home dress
maker.
The same idea may be carried out in
making combinations OF lace and em-
broidery, for without the greatest care
nothing IS so easy as TO make one side
of the waist totally different from the
other.
