By KAY SHERWOOD
NEA Stuff Writer
A colorful print plus simple sew
ing udds up to a handsome throw
or coverlet for Ix-d or couch that
can liven up a drub room at a
modest cost in time and money.
So what if the seams you sew
are not so fine? A straight throw
is easy to make. The choice of
fabric is the key to the splashy
effect. Many of those you'll see on
a stroll through a fabrics display
are particularly well suited for our
purpose. I like the wide variety of
small-scaled, neat designs printed
on firm colons that can blend
equally well with modern, early
American or provincial decor.
From Desley workrooms come
step-by-step instructions for mak
ing a throw or coverlet plus tips
to give the finished article a pro
fessional touch. The stylists also
worked out a variation on the dust
nffle theme tliat seems a good
deal easier to make to me than
the conventional kind.
For a one-piece style throw you
will need six yards of 48-inch fab-
Officers Elected
By Sunshine Club
Mrs. W. F. McFadden was elect
ed president of the Pythian Sis
ters' Sunshine club, at the " meet
ing last Tuesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. 11. D. Hamilton. 501
Newport avenue. Mrs. George
Lynch and Mrs. A. E. Schuman
were named vice - president and
secretary, respectively.
Mrs. M. B. Smith arranged the
entertainment for the afternoon,
and Mrs. R. D. Ketchum won the
prize.
The following others were pres
ent: Mrs. Olo Nordstrom, Mrs.
Claude Kelley and Mrs. C. P.
Becker.
The hostess served refreshments
at the close of the afternoon.
The next meeting will be Feb.
22, at a place to be announced
later.
ric. The standard length of a
throw is 108 inches. So cut the six-
yartl piece in half crosswise.
Leave one section whole: slit the
other piece in half lengthwise,
making two 2-5-inch strips. For a
double bed, center big pieces on
a bed and seam center piece and
side strip together. Finish with a
half-inch hem all around. On a
single bed, center the big piece
and join strips along the side
edges of the bed. Cut off the ex
cess fabric, then hem. Use the
excess for toss pillows.
Foo a coverlet over a dust ruf
fle, you'll need only three yards of
48-inch fabric for a single bed.
Center on bed, and you'll have
ibout a six-lo-nine-inch drop on
each side. Hem or welt edges at
sides and foot. Hem top edge. A
coverlet on a double bed will re
quire six yards of the print. The
sewing procedure is the same as
(or the throw except that the two
lengthwise strips need to be cut
10 inches wide.
Dust ruffle in a solid color to
match one of the colors in the
print will take nine yards of 48-
inch fabric for a double bed; eight
yards for a single. Slit fabric
lengthwise into two 24-inch strips.
Hem side and bottom edges of two
strips separately; shirr the top
edges. Finish top edge with a two
iuch-muslin heading. Pin, clip or
tack the heading to the box spring.
slightly overlapping where the two
strips meet.
This method permits easier
washing and drying of a dust ruf
fle. It is also more flexible if you
should change your bedroom fur-
liture.
If your bed hiis no footboard, you
may want to round the corners
of the spread to give a more pro
fessional look to the project. To
do this measure about seven
inches in each direction from one
bottom corner, and mark with pen
cil. Measure and mark two and a
half inches diagonally up from
corner. Draw curving line connect
ing three points, making the curve
smooth and gentle where it joins
the straight edges. Cut along pen
cil line. Cut second corner by
irst.
