Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
First of a six-part needlework series by Sara Hadley in the Ladies' Home Journal, May 1902, on Marie Antoinette lace work. It explains how braids, cords, rings and stitches are assembled on a pattern and appliqued to a net foundation, using a floral basket vestibule-door curtain (about 28 x 15 inches) as the example. Instructions cover Brussels stitch, Sorrento bars, basting braids to the pattern, applying the net, and pressing; photographs show the steps and the finished curtain.
