Beeton, Mrs. Isabella Mary, 1836-1865

"Beeton's Book of Needlework"


The light groundwork is worked entirely in Mechlin wheels, the satin
stitch being worked when these are completed. This pattern can be
enlarged and applied to many purposes. The muslin is cut away when the
whole work is finished.

492.--_Point Lace Trimming for Square Bodice_.
Materials: Braid; Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Mecklenburg thread No.
12 or 20.
We give two sizes of thread, as this design is capable of many uses, and
the size of the thread differs with these. The pattern is worked in
English rosettes and bars (see No. 467). No. 488 edging looks well with
this pattern.

Mecklenburg thread No. 22.
[Illustration: 493--Point Lace Collar.]
Set on the braid or cord by passing a thread through a hole pricked
in the pattern over the braid and out again through the same hole.
