Beeton, Mrs. Isabella Mary, 1836-1865

"Beeton's Book of Needlework"

As the alphabet of capitals (page 377, No.
351) and that of these small letters correspond, any name may be worked
from them.
[Illustration: 354.--- Alphabet of Small Letters.]

355.--Alphabet (Capitals).
Materials: Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Embroidery Cotton Nos. 12 and
20.
This alphabet is worked in raised satin stitch, the outlines being
partly scalloped; for the fine lines, which should be worked in
overcast, embroidery cotton No. 20 should be employed.

Material: Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Embroidery Cotton No. 16.
The alphabet here illustrated is in the florid style; the graceful
flowing lines are worked in raised satin stitch, as well as the
variously-sized dots which ornament the letters.

Materials: Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Embroidery Cotton Nos. 12 and
