 worked, the owner fills it in, and finishes it the same as any other sofa 
 pillow. Some nice patterns for crazy pillows will be found in our 
 book of loo Worsted Cross-Stitch Patterns; price, 25 cents, by mail. 
 
itt-^U.S luR A PIANO COVER OR TAUl.K Ll.ulH. 
 
DESIGN FOR A PIANO COVER OR TABLE 
 
 CLOTH. 
 
 This engraving reprCvSents a very handsome design for 
 a table spread, piano cover or stand cloth. The model 
 from which this illustration was copied is made on garnet 
 wool canvas, with a rich, gold-colored floss, and is prob- 
 ably as effective a combination as can be suggested. 
 However, personal taste, and the prevailing tint in a room 
 where the article embroidered is to be used, must direct 
 combinations. It is not necessary to use canvas, as cloth, 
 felt or Canton flannel maj' be preferred; but the meshes 
 of the canvas will be found of great assistance in following 
 the pattern with regularity of stitch. The work is all 
 don^ in a long back-stitch, or sort of Kensington stitch, 
 and is extremelv effective. 
 
 Stitches and Foundation Fabrics. 
 
 A. LIST and explanation of the fobrics and working ma- 
 terials used in embroidering fancy articles, hangings, 
 coverings, tidies, etc. Also, directions for and illus- 
 trations of various stitches. With the exception of 
 two or three, the stitches are all variations of the 
 cross-stitch, and are generally familiar, although 
 there are many to whom they yet remain an unsolved 
 mystery. The Alpha of all stitches is probably the 
 "Gobelin," or " tapestry" stitch, but it is one which 
 should not be taken up first by the beginner, for 
 various reasons. We will proceed to describe the 
 ordinary stitches. 
 
f 
 
 SOlTIi KKNSIN(iT(»N SI ITCH. 
 
 At South Kensington. Eng- 
 lanfl, some ladies of the no- 
 bilitv have established an art 
 school, in which all stvles of 
 needle-work, antique and 
 modern, are taught. One or 
 two of these stitches have 
 taken quite a hoLl upon the 
 affectioTis of the embroidery- 
 loving woman, and for the 
 want of a better name each 
 is called "South Kensing- 
 ton Stitch." It will thus be 
 seen that the article "a" is 
 the appropriate one to use, 
 and not " the," since there is more than one stitch belonging to the 
 South Kensington School. The stitch, however, which has gone abroad 
 in printers' ink as the South Kensington, is clearly illustrated by 
 the engraving. It will be seen that it is nothing more than a back- 
 stitch, the stitches being made to fit in between each other with no 
 special regularity, except to produce perfect shading. The outline of 
 the design is stamped, and must be perfectly even w hen worked ; but 
 the interior of the petal or leaf is to be filled in according to the shape, 
 and shaded to the taste, or the pattern if there be one to copy. Eng- 
 lish crewel is the proper working worsted for this stitch. Another 
 stitch, known in the school n\entioned as the " Stem Stitch," is herx; 
 called th^ " Outline."

SDUJH KENSlN(iTON OUT- 
 I.INK STITCH 
 
 It cunnot be clearly ex- 
 plained ill words, but 
 mav be comprehended at 
 once by inspection of the 
 engraving. It forms an 
 unbroken outline, which 
 appears like a finely 
 twisted silk cord. It is 
 ve ry ■ effective on satin, 
 and is used for such de- 
 signs as statuary with 
 flowing draperies, Cupid, 
 game, etc., looking when 
 finished, like a fine pen and ink drawing. One panel done on old gold 
 satin, with dark olive embroidery silk, is exquisite. There is no filling 
 in or Shading; it is simply the outline that is followed; and also the 
 strokes which would be made Avith a pen to represent drapery, or any 
 of the other details of an unshaded sketch. It is very effective in fo- 
 liage, butterflies, animals, etc., and may be made on almost any article 
 of fancy work, as well as used for marking linen. 
 
 SATIN STITCH 
 
 Is done in all sorts of flosses, embroidery silks, zephyrs and crewels, 
 and upon silk, satin, velvet, cloth and canvas. The pattern must be 
 stamped and then " run"' along all the lines with silk or worsted, and 
 
SATIN STITCH. 
 
 DKRIGNS rOR FF.ATHKR STITCH. 
 
 nch leaf and petal, if of 
 ^'ood si/c, must be crossed 
 ami reerossed with the 
 same, all before the real 
 < 'nliroidery bef,Mn.s. There 
 11 list be HO break in the 
 ' liufe of a leaf or petal, and 
 ' iiiise(]uently each stitch 
 iiist be carefully and even- 
 ly set. In leaves, such as 
 the one shown in the illus- 
 tration, tlie center is defined 
 by the meeting of the Ktitchc«, 
 which must be exactly even. 
 ^ Satin stitch is simply an 
 _j over-and-over stitch, and 
 vjenerally both sides of the 
 ,^ work look almost equally 
 : well. 
 
 DKSKJNS FOR FF.ATHP.R 
 STlTell. 
 
 These two designs are 
 very pretty for fastening the 
 edges of ribbons or strips 
 of contrasting fabric to posi- 
 tion, or for outlining bor- 
 ders, hemming flannels and 
 embellishing fancy work 
 generally. It is done by the 
 chain stitch movement, and 
 is verv simple. 
 
CROS.S-STITCH. 
 
 This is the first to be learned in doing 
 canvas work. It is made hy a back- 
 stitch movement, with the needle always 
 pointing to the left, as will be observed in 
 the illustration, except sometimes in 
 CROSS-STiTCii. changing tlie direction of the design. 
 
 Of Java or ordinary canvas two threads each waj is the limit for the 
 stitch, one-half of which crosses diagonally from left to right and the 
 other half in just the opposite direction. Each stitch is completed 
 before the next is commenced, although in some instances a line of 
 half-stitches may be made from left to right and the other halves fin- 
 ished in the opposite direction. The result is the same, but the effect 
 is not so smooth, and conseauentl^- not so accurate. 
 
 PERSIAN CROSS-STITCH. 
 
 PERSIAN CROSS-STITCH. 
 
 It is suid that in the irregularity of this 
 stitch, and the Oriental colors selected 
 for it, consists its beauty when it covers a 
 design. By varying the length of the 
 
 stitch, almost any design may be copied. 
 
 The silk or worsted is carried across two 
 threads of the ground for the first half of the stitch, and is then 
 brought up between the two threads and the cross is made over the 
 upper half of the long stitch. The illustration will clearly explain 
 the method and eti'ect. 
 
 TENT STITCH. 
 
 Tliis is simply a short stitch made over 
 
 a single crossing of the can\us threads 
 
 and all slanting from right to left, four 
 
 tent stitches occupying the space of an 
 
 ordinary cross-stitch. It produces a very 
 
 TENT STITCH. fine grounding, and must be carefully 
 
 and evenly done. The movement is the same as in the tapestry stitch, 
 
 as will be seen by referring to the engraving, which illustrates " tent" 
 
 stitch perfectly.-. 
 
It is in this siitih that the old hangings 
 unci pictures, now so valued from their 
 antiquity, were made. Although very 
 simple, only those having some knowl- 
 edge of the art of painting should at- 
 tempt anything in this stitch, as the shad- 
 ing must depend upon the eye and not 
 upon a counting of the stitches. Many 
 TAPESTRY STITCH. of the old designs were painted upon the 
 
 foundation canvas, which was of great assistance to the worker; and 
 we presume that some of the decorative art societies who are making 
 a revival of Gobelin tapestry a specialty, would be able to furnish the 
 same style of design. An artist in tapestry work can copy accurately 
 from an oil-painted picture, with only the eye directing the coloring 
 and shading. As we have before mentioned, four threads of canvas — 
 two each way — mark out the space of one ordinary cross-stitch, and 
 in this space two tapestry stitches are made. They are worked from 
 left to right, crossing four threads in height and one in width, with a 
 back-stitch movement, bringing the needle out toward the worker at 
 the bottom of the line upon which she is working. The picture illus- 
 trates clearly the etfect and the method of making tapestry stitch.

 STAR .STITCM. 
 
 There are four varieties of 
 this stitch, which is seldom 
 used to delineate a design, un- 
 less upon coarse net or rail- 
 STAR STITCH. road canvas, for which the or- 
 
 dinary cross-stitch is not heavy enough. The illustrations delineate it 
 very plainly, making it unnecessary to give a special description of it. 
 
IRISH STITCH. 
 
 This is a " filling in" or " grounding" stitch, 
 and is made with alternate long and short back 
 stitches, the short stitches of one row commenc- 
 ing at the ends of the long ones on the row 
 above. It is generally done with zephvr, which 
 is not too thick, as every perpendicular thread 
 of the canvas is not over-worked — only the 
 IRISH STITCH. spaces between. The engraving will give you 
 the proper idea of the effect and the manner of working. The Ger- 
 man stitch is done in precisely the same way as the Irish, except that 
 the stitch crosses the canvas diagonally. By exercising a little judg- 
 ment and ingenuity, it will be seen that the worsted need only cover 
 the surface. In doing it the regular way, the under side, as well as 
 the upper, is covered with the zephyr, a method which many condemn. 
 
 HEM STITCHING. 
 
 HKM STITCHING. 
 
 For handkerchiefs, linen-lawn col- 
 lars and cuffs, the ends of neckties, 
 scarfs, etc., hem stitching is much 
 used. A. few threads are drawn out 
 of the article to be finished, where the 4 
 
 hem is to be felled; and the felling is 
 then done. After this, the ravelled or drawn space is separated into 
 little spaces by knotting a few of the threads together at regular inter- 
 vals with fine floss or cotton, and then the side next the felling is sep- 
 arated into extra spaces by dividing -with a sort of back-stitch taken 
 through the knot, each cluster being first knotted together. A close 
 inspection of the picture and a little ingenuity will enable one to easily 
 hem-stitch any article desired, better than any Avritten instructions 
 can direct.

 No. 17. Oi'EN-\^'oRK Embroidery. 
 
 No. I. Janina Stitch. 
 
 This stitch is worked wholly on the suriace. except where the short 
 back-stitch occurs along the outline, in making the stitches. A back- 
 stitch is taken at each side, inserting the point at the next to the last 
 thread and pushing it through to the outside again below the last 
 thread. An examination of the picture will make this clear to the read- 
 er, as the needle is set for one of the back-stitches described. The em- 
 broidery is suitable for toilet articles, small mats. -and stand or table 
 covers, and, in fact, for any purpose for which satin or any other sur- 
 face stitch is used. Silk floss or English crewel is usedin this em- 
 broidery. 
 
 No. 2. Wound Stitch. 
 
 This is a pretty stitch for embroidering grain, small leaves, or flow- 
 ers having small petals. The accompanying design shows the method 
 by which the cord is formed. After the needle is wound, the thumb of 
 the left hand is held firmly over it until the needle is pulled through 
 and the coil is firmly drawn in place. Two stitches only are necessary 
 to form each kernel. The tiny stitches seen at thr? ends of the kernels 
 may be lengthened to represent the barbs on real grain, if desired. 
 
No. 3. Co\'ERKn Knot Stitch. 
 Knot stitches are mucli used iii enibroidcrint^ upon linen and cambric, 
 and are usually done in linen and Moravian tlosscs. The pmrravinj^ of 
 figure No. 3 represents one style of knot stitch made by takini; an ordi- 
 nary back stitch, winding? the floss twice about the needle and then 
 drawing the latter throuijh, with the left thumb held closely over the 
 coil. Ihe needle point is then thrust to the other side, almost exactly 
 where it came to the surface, so as to locate another knot. This stitch 
 itt frequently adopted in making initials, handkerchief corners, etc. 
 
 No. 4. Wound Knot Stitch. 
 
 This is made as follows : The needle is set, wound, and drawn through, 
 
 the same as in the first stitch, and is then thrust through the outride at 
 
 the place indicateil by tiie dot above the needle. This draws the wound 
 
 thread into the knot illustrated, which is just as pretty as its predecessor. 
 
 No. 5. Plain Ch.mn Stitch. 
 The engraving represents the old-fashioned, plain chain stitch, which 
 is still used for many purposes, such as fastening the edges of appiiqnt' 
 work, embroidering slippers, mats, stand-covers, etc. Each stitch is 
 made in the same way as the one for which the needle is set. 
 
 No. 6. Twisted Chain Stitch. 
 
 This stitch is made on the same principle as the plain stitch, except 
 that the needle, instead of being set back into the preceding stitch, is 
 set at the left side of it. It is used along edges as headings to fringe, and 
 sometimes to outline a design in Grecian or scroll work. Hems and 
 tucks in flannel skirts may be stitched in this way in preference to ma- 
 chine or plain hand sewing. 
 
 No. 7. Vine Chain Stitch. 
 
 This stitch is often used upon hems, as are both the other styles, and 
 sometimes above bindings of ribbon. It is often used to complete plain 
 blankets, flannel petticoats, little under-shirts, or any article for which 
 it seems a suitable flnish. The stitches are made to the right and left 
 alternately, and are longer and more open than the other varieties. 
 
 No. 8. Embossed Button-Hole or Tongue Stitch. 
 This style of stitch is much used in making borders on canvas or 
 other materials, when fringe is to be the completion for the edge, and 
 also in embroidering monograms and initials. Two rows of running 
 stitches are made wherever the border is to be located, and over these 
 the button-hole stitch is made. 
 
Nos. 9, lo. II AND 12. Borders in Ordinary Button-Hole Stitch. 
 These four samples sliow as manv ditTercnt methods of settinj^ button- 
 hole stitehes alont^ the edi^e of flannel, canvas, linen, or whatever fabric 
 or article requires a border of this style. The elTects are produced hy 
 chaiiLjini^ the direction of the needle when making the stitches. In 
 doing fancy work, or bortlering any useful article that needs to be gay, 
 shaded silk will be very effective in the leaf style illustrated. 
 
 No. 13. IIerring-Bone Stitch. 
 
 This is a scitch used for joining the seams of flannel in a flat manner, 
 instead of by the usual wav. thus doing away with the ridge a fell 
 makes. Being ornamental as well as useful, it is also used for decora- 
 tive purposes, and is seen upon tidies, towels, and bands of applied rib- 
 bons or fabrics. While the work is done from left to right, the needle 
 is set in the usual way in a sort of back stitch. 
 
 No. 14. Stitch for Flannel, or for Ornamental Use on Canvas. 
 Although this stitch is illustrated upon canvas, where it is sometimes 
 used in a decorative manner, it is especially adapted to flannels which 
 require a neat finish and will not permit of an elaborate one. It can be 
 done in white silk floss or in colored worsteds, as preferred. 
 
 No. 15. Filling for Embroidered Scollops. 
 
 The method illustrated for "filling in "scollops before the embroi- 
 dery is done, is very successful in giving a rounded effect to the work 
 when finished. The outlines are run, and then an under-filling, form- 
 ed of chain stitching, is made in two rows between the outlining 
 stitches. After this, the usual button-hole stitch is emplojcd to cover 
 the filling and complete the embroidery. 
 
 No. 16. Stem-Stitch. 
 
 This engraving shows a style of stitch largely used in making over- 
 wrought vines. The design is first run with floss, and then the work 
 is done with a regular over-and-over stitch, which is clearly explained 
 by the engraving. It is suitable for either white or colored embroidery, 
 and is useful in vine patterns. 
 
 No. 17. Open-Work Embroidery. 
 
 This engraving is intended to illustrate the plan followed in making 
 
 open embroidery, etc., and the stitch employed. The design is first 
 
 marked or stamped, and then run with floss. Each leaf or petal is then 
 
 slashed with a sharp scissors, and the material drawn back to the run- 
 
 ing with an over-and-over stitch done with coarse linen floss.
