the bride a pair of these pretty room
slippers which may be fashioned en-
tirely of ribbon, and are so soft and
supple that they may be folded and
tucked into a corner OF the travelling
bag.
First. cut four sole-pieces from the
wide ribbon. These sole-pieces should
be about ten inches long and three
inches wide. longer and wider If the
bride Is big girl with a generous
foot. Round of the four corners OF
the oblongs, but do not attempt to
shape the sole otherwise. The sole
pieces are placed back to back with
strip OF thin cotton sheeting between
the two layers of ribbon, the sheeting
being quilted together with small
hand stitches in diagonal lines.
The sides OF the slipper are made
OF the ribbon attached all around the
sole without gathers at one edge, the
other edges being drawn up with an
elastic run through casing. Back
and front of the slippers are alike, the
soft material shaping itself over the
foot when the slipper is drawn on. A

designate the front of the slipper.
Some slippers are made of wide
pink satin ribbon, an edge of Venise
lace being appliqued to the ribbon
along one side. before the ribbon is
fastened to the quilted sole. If de-
sired, the ribbon might be entirely
covered with lace. or even with en-
broidered net, the casing being run
through both satin and net. Very
soft, thick satin ribbon, four inches
wide, should be used for making the
slippers. and about a yard and halt
