Text Appearing After Image:
3—A filet-net curtain, showing a conventional border broken at regular intervals by little tree-like figures corners can not be buttonholed over, and unless this is done the squares can not be neatly finished. Draw two threads around each square and hemstitch on the wrong side, button- holing over the corners and trimming off the threads after the square is finished. Filet net forms the curtains shown in illustrations three and four. This material is also inexpensive, costing from 69 cents to $1.60 a yard, and varying in width from thirty- four to sixty inches. It can be bought in white or ecru, the latter being chosen for the curtains illustrated. Most of us have seen pieces of the darned net which was 4—A running border which is easy to copy. The darning may be done in white or color such a popular type of embroidery in our grandmothers' day, and these filet curtains make good use of this old- fashioned stitchery. Nothing could be more attractive than the conventional border, broken at regular intervals by the lit- tle tree-like figures, of the one curtain, or the simple running design, with the darning-needle in the corner, of the other. The inability to draw need not deter one from undertak- ing to work out an original design, for one has only to ex- periment with a bit of net and threaded needle to be con- vinced that an endless number of patterns will suggest them- selves after a few trials.
