terials. foremost among them being
the feece-lined pique.
This material is not necessarily
synonymous with extreme weight, but
it should be carefully bought. The
boardlike quality is a very difficult
problem to the laundress who has
none too good an equipment.
The seeker for pique should be fore
armed with knowledge Of it's little
peculiarities. 1t will shrink. and will
therefore become closer when laundered.
Stiff pique will not soften to any appre-
ciable extent. Thinness does not mean
a poor quality. because the softest OF
French pique. witch is the best that
may be had. is often quite thin COM
pared to the regulation piaues.
The bath robe, neglige or dressing

the sleeve uppers may be pieced out

Cluny Chemise Yokes

c.lemise is often a whole top. 1t

made OF cluny lace, but 1t will outwear
almost every other sort.
Then. too. the French sewing women
make them. or. rather. apply them. to
the nainsook or linen chemise for just 50
cents. 1t seems pathetically small, but.
you see. the top is entirely ready being
both neckpiece and sleeve. so there re-
mains merely the scanning together with
hand-fell and the attaching of it to
the lace.

work loves it, and never has to be ca

How to Apply the Design

HERE are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
II your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen. lawn. batiste
and the like-the simplest method
Is to lay the material over the de-
sign and. with a well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
1t your material is heavy. secure
a piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down. upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper you will find neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon your material.

in this simple process, if you would
