This design is square, the edges are doubled under and securely sewed
with silk.
Border--Use same instructions as given for working border of Daisy
Design 612 D. See below.
Flowers.--Begin the edge of the petals with 639, shading lighter to
the calyx with 638, 637, 636, 655.7. Make some petals light and others
dark. In the full flower it is better to make the back petals lighter
and those in the foreground darker. See Colored Plate XIX. Work that
part of the calyx near the petals with Green, 780, 781, and the bottom
with 782.
Leaves.--Work solid, using 780 for the points and shading gradually
darker with 781, 782. Use 783 for the stems. (Not Difficult.)
