COLORED PLATE IX.]

Flowers.--Work solid in shades of purple and pink Corticelli Filo Silk.

Begin some flowers with Pink, 680, shading gradually lighter toward the

center with 679 and 678. In others combine purple and pink. Begin with

674 and shade gradually to light pink; then darker toward the center,

or reverse, using different shades in each flower. Reference to the

Colored Plate of Sweet Pea Design 407G will be found quite a help in

getting the proper shading, although the colors used are not identical

with those suggested for this design.

Leaves.--—Work the points with Green, 781, shading darker toward the

center with 782, 783. Work the veins and stems in 783. For the tendrils

use 780. (Difficult.)
