OF it being used again, for the frag-

for fresh. In fact, the two delightful
coffee cushions that I own do not
reveal the substance Of their filling

TO make such coffee cushions use
cretonne in some small pattern and
cut it into squares AZ inches along
the sides. Seam two squares together
on the wrong side, leaving a very
small opening. Embroider all along
the edges some finish such as rather
| large cross stitches, herringbone, or
blanket stitch. On mine the cross
stitch is used, made close together.
This makes sort of narrow, fiat rim
for the edges the width of the stitch
cry. The work is done in coarse en-
broidery silk. and in dark color that
brings out the other tones in the Gre
tonne. Any printed goods can be
used, silk, linen, cotton or rayon.
Attractive Style.
+ Another attractive way to make the
cushions is to use a plain color and
fine patchwork designs in bright tones
on them. Or the ornamentation may
be done in embroidery. The design in

When trying to think of unique
Christmas gifts that cost practically
nothing, remember these cushions
They can be made from such material
as you have on hand, and then they
actually do cost nothing. But you
must also remember to start imme-
diately to save the coffee grounds
whenever YOU use coffee for any pur-
pose. And also remember to evan.
crate every particle of moisture. it
is then that the cushions prove so
proof against rust for needles ana
pins. This is great advantage to
those who live in damn climates or
who wish to use the cushions for sea.
