A short needlework instruction from the Work Department of Godey's Lady's Book describing how to make a night-dress sachet (a case for holding nightclothes). It gives brief directions for the embroidered border on white linen or cambric, using white or scarlet cotton or silk, and for a Honiton braid lace trimming with buttonhole-stitched stalks and thread picots. Three engraved figures show the finished sachet, the full-size embroidery border and the lace trimming.
