If a person is clever nt cutting

is recommended. Ibigs, table run

Suppose you decide to print n
diagun fly across a bag in two
rows. "m your pongee carefully
by dinwing threads, to the .size you
want, allowing for seams and a
wide hem, part of hich is to hold
lite draw -cords. Pin the pongee
on a padded board, (Cover a board
with a umooth thick material.) To
print neatly stretch a dark thread
across the material and anchor it
with tacks.
.Mix enough paint to finish tho
printing, lirowns uud purpha are
suggested for pongee. Iturnt orange
would be good. Itrush tho paint
evenly over the block and try it on
an extra, piece of cloth. Lay it
flat, face, down and hit it a single
blow with a hammer. This trial
print will show you whether or
not it has been ch arly cut, ami
also will .show you places that
catch tho paint and will niako
daub where you do not want
them.
Without urtually laying the block
on the pongee measure roughly to
seo how many times you will bo
able to print it. Then work from
the center out. painting tho block
after each impression. Results
from this ar quite fascinating.
Children with u lit i lo supervision
can handle this quit successfully.
