Beeton, Mrs. Isabella Mary, 1836-1865

"Beeton's Book of Needlework"


[Illustration: 532.--Square Pattern in Guipure d'Art.]
The centre of No. 531 is composed of wheels and point de reprise; the
pattern round the centre is worked in point de feston, differing a
little from that given on pages 505 and 506, but the illustration
clearly shows the difference.
No. 532 has similar borders to No. 531; the centre is occupied by a star
(see page 512) in point de feston; four large wheels surround this; the
square stitches between are filled with small wheels and with groups of
long loops, fastened together in sheaves. Point d'esprit and point de
toile, worked one way only, complete this square.

533 _to_ 536.--_Four Patterns in Guipure d'Art_.
Material: Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Mecklenburg thread No. 2 or 16,
according to the size of the work.
These four patterns will be found useful for filling up small squares,
or for varying the usual groundwork of point d'esprit.
[Illustration: 533.--Pattern in Guipure d'Art.]
No. 533 is a succession of point de feston stitches, which half fill
each square of the netting.
