ITEMS OF INTEREST

A ruffied pin cushion may be made
for the dressing table, and to match,
one may easily construct a lingerie
bag. A casing is made in the top,
after a piece of the ribbon has been
scanned together while the bottom is
scalloped on a ring. A bolt of baby
ribbon is put in the bag, the end pro-
truding through the hole. 1t is then
at the disposal of each needy guest.
II you wish, the curtains may be
looped back with shirred band of
the ribbon and, of course, the lamp
must have it's shade, and this is
dainty and still light giving if made
of the ribbon, shirred on a round or
even an oval frame. If the ribbon
is narrow, two widths may be sewed
together. A tiny shade to match may
be made for the candlestick used on
the bedside table.
