No. 36 Butterfly Design for Point Lace
This design is for point lace braid, and is very easily made. Fancy bars made after an adaptation from the d’Alençon bars, and point de Venise stitches are used for filling in. The butterfly may be used as a portion of an edging design, or as a corner or center for any small article to be decorated. The lines extending from the head are made with a fine over-and-over stitch, or a fine cord.
