A still prettier effect can be made by
following these same directions, using a
white silk handkerchief and embroider
ing on it tiny Howers to match the color
of the lining. These Howers may be put
only around the edge or scattered care
lessly over the surface. If green be de
sired for a lining put leaves instead of
flowers. Designs can be drawn easily
with a lead pencil from some copy,

A small silk handkerchief, embroid

given a stiff lining, may be folded in the
form of a cornucopia by sewing up two
adjacent sides. A silk loop to hang it
up by makes it into a hair receiver.
