373.--_Dora_.

Material: Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Embroidery Cotton No. 30.

This elaborate design should not be attempted by beginners in the art of

embroidery; it is worked in overcast stitch, raised and veined satin

stitch; the tendrils are entirely worked in graduated overcast; the name

is placed over a graceful spray of wild flowers worked in the

above-named stitches. This pattern, although originally designed to be

worked on net or fine muslin, is far more effective when worked on

cambric or fine lawn.
