WOOLEN RUG MATERIALS,
FROZEN CHRISTMAS SALAD.
(Fron r. M. M, ArlingtonJ
Recently someone requested in
formation on where to get the
woolen material with which to
make rugs at home. The following
address of a New York firm sup
plying this material is from an
ad in q current needlework maga-
zine. It offered remnants of wool
for sale for cutting into strips
for rugs or for using as quilt
blocks. I believe it is sold by
the pound. The address Is, Wool
Remnant Company. Dept. D. A.,
Box 181, Canal Street Station,
New York 13. N. Y.
