Peg was packing to go on a week
end visit when Ann spied these two
adorable handkerchiefs and pounded
ner with questions.
Yes, I made them to give to Alice
as a little gift on my arrival"
Ann picked one up and examined
it. 1t was made of light green wolfe,
the wolfe was about six inches square.
A two-inch footing of the same shade
of green was gathered by pulling the
thread on the edge of the footing and
was fagoted with green embroidery
thread to the tiny hem on the wolfe.
The little flowers We're embroidered
in lavender in the simple single stitch.
French knots were embroidered in the
same shade of lavender and gave an
effect of n border.
The second one was just as charm
ing and was made of light orange
wolfe and the orange tinted lace was
almost as wide as the green footing
only it was just slightly gathered.
This was also fagoted to the hem of
the wolfe with yellow thread. In the
corner there was an applique flower of
yellow voile and was outlined with a
cream colored thread in the wide
butt0nhole stitch. A little running
stitch in yellow continued around the
handkerchief.
II wish you'd visit me for a week
end" declared Ann.
