SIMPLE STENCILING

brush should be used for wall decora-
ton. a smaller one for fabric
The colors should be thoroughly mixed
with the medium by means OF spatula
or small knife The brush should be
well filed. and all superfuOus color
should then be scraped from It, Some
times IL is better to tap or "pounce"
the color than to brush It on Try ii
out first on a waste piece OF fabric to
be sure about consistency. shade, etc.
Keep the stencil clean. front and back
When you are using two colors have
stencil and brush for each Clean your
stencils and brushes both with turpen-
tine and benzlne. The former medium
will also thin the color. II desirable
The easiest application OF color Is the
equal or nat" but for shading it is
only necessary 10 bear longer and
harder on the darker portion. II the
design Includes a number OF small parts
close together. use a small brush to
color them. so as 20 avoid running un-
der the edges into other parts OF the
design
For applique work the stencil should
be placed on the ground material and
the outline traced with a soft pencil or
with tailor's chalk. Then the stencil Is
laid on THE fabric from which the ap
plique is to be cut and a tracing is made
in a similar manner.
In cutting out the design forms, allow
one-eighth inch for turning in. unless.
as is sometimes better. there is to be
fancy stitch along the edge of the ap-
plique.
The ties, or connecting parts. OF the
stencil often break. through the fine
ness OF their cutting. They can be re-
paired by pasting a small piece OF the
same paper over the broken section
with glue or shellac
Stenciling may be applied. either be-
fore or after the article is made up. to
curtains pillow covers. wOrkbags Iaun-
dry bags. parssols, fans. handkerchief
and glove boxes. Stencil outfits can be
purchased. with an assortment OF de-
signs and colors. brushes. knives.

of stout paper, and If possible try to
obtain fast colors.

Cable Stitch

n broidery stitches. cable stitch.
- not yet IN all the shops. but al
ready immensely popular with women
who really know what's what In the
fancy-work line.
Use a thick floss silk-the stitch Is
best for embroidering such articles as
sofa pillows. the fronts or heavy shirt
waists, ETC. Begin with a knot; then.
holding the silk down on the outline OF
your design. throw a loop back OF the
needle (Or across your thunb) and
make short stitch from left to right
on the outline. This is your only stitch
through the goods; when the work Is
completed the other side should show
nothing but a pattern formed Of these
little parallel stitches
Next. still holding down the thread.
run your needle through the little silk
line left by running from one knot to
the next. and pull this rather loosely
toward you. Finally. the silk aIwavs
held down, run the needle through the
loop Of this knot and pull tightly for
ward
For the next knot. put the needle
through the linen a very short space
from the last. and proceed as before.
If your silk gives out. finish your knot
and then run your knotted silk through
both the material and the end OF the old
silk left by running from one knot to
the other

Embroidered Initials

harassed housewife of artistic tend
encies said to me recently.
Well here are a few suggestions.
Besides. the regulation old English and
script letters. there are long French
or Venetian letters; squat rounded
Chlnese ones, with the letters run
into each other. giving the entire
name of the owner in as little space
as the initials or monogram usually
takes up; thin, square, willow letters;
long, pointed old Irish ones. The as
sortment is almost endless; and any
book on illuminating and lettering
Will give plenty of further patterns
for the embroiderer
Resides, the letters may be worked
In various ways-solid. outline seeded,
or with any combinations of these.
