Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A one-page instalment from Sara Hadley's six-part needlework series in the Ladies' Home Journal, giving instruction in needle point lace. It covers choosing linen braid, basting braid to the pattern, thread sizes, and four filling stitches: Point de Sorrento, Point d'Angleterre, Rose Point wheel and Point d'Alençon bars. It also describes the picot background, the Church stitch flower body, the loop edge, and raised braid outlines on a bertha. Photographs show the working pattern, a bud, a flower section, and the finished bertha.
