No. 35 Flounce in Battenburg Lace

A very elegant flounce of Battenburg lace may be made after the design represented on the opposite page. The picture shows the flounce just one-half its actual width; but even this width would be very handsome as a band for the bottom of a dress. By a close inspection of the stitches seen and a reference to these illustrated in the department devoted to stitches, the various kinds here used may be easily identified. They consist of point de Venise, point de Bruxelles, Sorrento and d’Alençon bars and “spiders.” A fine picot braid edges each side of the flounce. The design can be obtained in any width desired from a reliable lace-maker.
