H23 woman who aits on th veranda
plying her needle to fashion some
pretty article for her home is the
epitome of peaceful contentment. Che
listens to the humming of the bees and
breathes th flower-eoented air all the
while she stitches busily at the de
sign she is embroidering. . The woman
who has a summer cottage will find that
there are many articles which she can
make to add to Its' attractiveness. Seta
for the guest chambers are daintier than
ever, and the four articles shown here
are easily duplicated. -
The linen used is of a coarse weave,
and should be white or cream In color.
The nlghtrobe case Is fashioned to re
semble a large envelope of sufficient di
mensions to accommodate the night
rob when not In use. The flap Is scal
loped and buttonhole-stltohed. and above
th scallop U embroidered a running
vine design In tones of dark green.
"Minis tare rose and forget-me-nots

embroidered In tones of pink, pale blue,
green and yellow. Over th "aides of

Narrow braid In tones of rose and
ecru finish the three sides.
Th cushion shows a different ar
rangement of the design, four of the
pyramids decorating the sides of a
square In the center. - -
r A wider linen braid, corresponding'
with that used on the scarf, trims
the sides of the cushion. These tiny
flowers are easily embroidered, for .
the petals are not padded. The simple
satin stitch is used, and th work
goes rapidly. The vine is the outline
stitch, with small French knots form
tng the pink flowers. The centers off
the ' forget-me-nots are a alngl
French knot of yellow.
' The long, narrow bag Is for the pair
of stays when sot la use. The top Is
scalloped and buttonhole-stitched, and
la drawn together with pale pink rib
