,THE OREOON , SUNDAY JOURNAL. . PORTLAND.. SUNDAY' MORNING, JUNE 14, 1914 By Adelaide Byrd 1 A rJTTOf X tell : you that this ex quisite bonnet, ' hand-embroidered on pique or linen, costs in the neighborhood of $20, I am euro that you will ' gladly grasp the opportunity that this page for needlewomen is giving to you and, will make a bonnet or cap after this design. It is a" becoming shape for little girls, and since all the (parts can be detached, it can be laundered easily and kept in a perennial state of fresh ness. The butterflies are suggested In the design for medallions of lace that can be bought and Inserted. They can be worked by hand, too. If you wish. Now, in addition to the parts here shown, there should be a straight band of. double material 21 inches long and tM inches wide when finished. To this the full crown Is attached at the seam that Is Indicated by the dashed llne'around the circle. This is done by buttoning the crown to the band by buttons and buttonholes, pleating the goods between to dispose of the fullness. After attach ing the front peak, the embroidered band Is placed over the joining, and a bow of ribbon completes the covering. One-half of the front and one-half of the band are shown, with the entire circle for the full top. The straight band you have to plan for yourself. Pique, medium-weight linen or a linen in a poplin weave will suit this design. The soft mercerized cotton in white works up satisfactorily. After transferring the design to the material by any of the methods sug- 7 re Top N ocsjcNro ay bctty lynne 00 0 op, 0 0' oxo- 0' gested, pad the leaves of the design. "Work them in over-and-over stitch. The flowers should be in eyelet stitches, so that an open effect will give a con trait. The rest of the dots can be eye lets In the usual round effect Stems can be In fine hemstitch r outline. "When applying the butterfly motifs, baste them In position and buttonhole them around the outer edge. The regu lar cut work is effective If you can give the time that it requires to -work It. This is done in buttonhole stitch be tween the parallel lines. The cross lines that connect the circles with the outer edge are dona by passing threads be tween the points and buttonholing over them as you do to make loops for hooks on your dresses. Cutting of v the goods is best done after the work has beea laundered. The scallops of the edge can be padded and buttonholed, and the dots can be eyelets or solid work. The putting together of the embroid ered pieces is a comparatively easy matter. The little sketch of the com pleted work shows bow this is done. By the way, the embroidered band has only one end finished, as shown in the) design. The other, since It roes under the tab. need not be pointed, but can bs a straight piece of an inch or so, to which can be attached the tab end of the band. I know that the work on this cap will make you very glad that the Industrious needlewoman has recognition in our Journalistic world. Good luok go with the working and the wearing. Covers for Hats A PLEASING fashion that appeals to the needlewoman is the fact that hats are covered with fabrics that give to them an Individual touch. And more than that, the work that brings this Individuality to your mil linery Is easy. That leghorn hat which needs some thing new can be covered with figured crepe that can be purchased as low as 15 cents a yard. The crown should be covered with a piece of the material by first pinning It around the top and flt ting.it into the crown. Baste the fabric around and cut away. The brim is cov, ered by this fitting process, and the best and easiest method is to finish the lines of .junction and the edge of the brim with a cording of plain unngured ma terial. Chiffon can be shirred and spread out from the center of the crown around the top. Gather it into the crown. Cover the brim in the same way and finish the edge with a band of taffeta or a curved strip of straw. Many hats are now rejoicing in a crown of taffeta or satin. This is an excellent Idea for taking the sunburned top of a good hat and throwing it to the winds, as it were. Cut out the top and allow for a circular inset that will be larger than the space that it will fill. This will give a slight fullness and an easy adjustment. When attaching it to the line of the straw baste a silk-covered cording. to the straw and give that excellent tailored finish to the edge. White mouseellne is a very important covering over in Paris, where the un usual has a decided appeal. It is ap plied in a plain, fitted style, and if you can possibly add a few white mousee line rows or white china cherries, so much the better.
