designs are unbelievably lovely and
new1ny dears. There are pleats
in pointed hens, new indeed. and if
you are inclined to be plump"
these points are just what you'll
need. Pleats there are, in tiers, one,

varied in their adaptability, both in
combinations of threads and colors.
The designs are many, but if you
have something in mind which you
think is prettier than those shown

without extra cost. I'd love to send
you an illustrated book, showing
the different kinds of work they
do, also giving instructions as to
the preparation of materials for
pleating, embroidery and hem
