HEMSTITCHED EDGE.

[Illustration: CHRYSANTHEMUM DESIGN NO. 406 C.]

_Materials_--12 inch Size: Corticelli Filo Silk, 1 skein each 673,

674, 678, 781, 782. Dealers can furnish stamped and hemstitched

linen of this design in 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 inch sizes. See

page 92. They can also furnish stamped and hemstitched linen for

tray cloths and bureau scarfs to match this design, 18×27, 18×36,

17×54, and 17×72 inches. See page 92.

These designs are specially adapted for beginners. The 7 and 9 inch

sizes make pretty doilies, and the larger linens work up into very

attractive centerpieces, tray cloths, and bureau scarfs.

Flowers.--Work solid. Begin the edge of petals with Corticelli Filo

Silk, 674, shading lighter to the calyx with 673 and 678. Make some

petals lighter by omitting 674. The petals in the background should be

darker than those in the foreground. Use 781 for the calyx. A study of

Colored Plate XXII will be found helpful to beginners.

Leaves.--Work solid, beginning the points with 781, shading darker

to midvein with 782. Work the stems in outline stitch with 782. (Not

Difficult.)
