The Easter season’ brings eggs
and more egg* to the tables of the
whole world, it
seems. There ore
tinted eggs, eggs
with dainty and
intricate patterns
adorning
their
glossy shells, and
eggs decked out
to look like Easter bunnies.
Eggs may be decorated, too, with
gaily colored stickers—and if you’re
clever with your fingers, you can
make a giddy blonde or demure
brunette egg, sporting a new Easter
bonnet! Use bright blue round stick
ers for eyes, and a tiny gummed
heart for a mouth. Or, if you like,
paint in the features, and tint the
"cheeks" with ordinary water color
paints. Cotton or fringed crepe pa
per may be glued on to resemble
hair, and an Easter bonnet is made
froyi a tiny paper nutcup, bits of
colored paper, and a tiny feather or
artificial flower.
When the bunny comes around
, keep him as

a guest at your
E a s t e r table.
He'll be a delight
to children and
grownups alike if
I his basket is filled
with candy eggs
that the children
themselves can cat.
But Easter Sunday demands more
than eggs in the way of food! I t ’s a
day of feasting and most of us plan
and plot for weeks ahead to give the
family a truly delicious and unusual
meal. Leg of lamb or baked ham
are the traditional foods around
which most of us plan our Easter
menus. Either may be used in the
menu below, to excellent advantage.
Broiled Grapefruit halves

and additional recipes, too, in my

W old automobiles tor their
graveyards are all too obvious.
But how about that backseat cush
ion with springs almost a* good
as new? The sketch shows what
became of one such seat.
It was padded out at the ends
to make the back the same length
as the front. Extra padding was
also used on the top to make it
smooth. A simple base with a
back and wings was made of one-
inch boards, to fit the seat. Next,
came the cretonne slip-cover for
the spring seat, with a box pleated
ruffle around the front and along
the sides up to the wings. A
bright peacock blue tone in the
cretonne was used for seam cord-
ings and was matched in paint for
the wings and back of the seat.
NOTE: Sewing Book 1 contains
32 pages of directions for making
slip-covers and curtains; books 2
and 3 give directions for the em
