Embroidery on Cambric
[Fig. 1.] — Suitable for the Corner of a Handkerchief
Materials.—Ingrain red and white embroidery cotton, No. 80.
The design may be traced on the cambric from that given in the Engraving, and then worked in raised satin stitch; the flowers (excepting the calyxes) in red cotton, and the leaves, stems, and calyxes in white. The little dots in the flowers are raised.
[Fig. 2.] — To Contain Initials
Materials.—Either the same as in the proceeding, or white embroidery cotton only. For a morning handkerchief, it would look very well in scarlet, the initials only being in white. The little rounds in this design are eyelet-holes very neatly sewed over.
