appearance they give to our best nat

HOW TO TRANSFER PATTERNS
Simple Method Of imprintine EN-
%broidery Designs on Linen by the
Use of Carbon Paper.

Several correspondents have asked
me to explain the method of transfer
rirg the patterns given on this page
to linen or other material. for their
own use in embroideling. The method
is a simple one of carbon paper trans
ference.
Put you linen down fiat on a hard
table; over it place q sheet of car
bon paper large enough to cover the
design over this the design itself.
Draw all owe the design with a hard
pencil, or any sharp-rointed object
which will not cut the paper, and your
design will be transferred to the linen
When the whole pattern Is not given.
measure and repeat, until the design
is completed.
Ii you wish, you can dispense with
the carbon paper. Fasten our design
by pins or thumbtacks firmly to the
frame Of a window. place your linen
over it and draw as before. A lighted
lampshade will do in the evening.
However, you must be very careful;
and tho method will not work at all
