INTRODUCTION Little colored embroderies in fancy stitches being greatly in vogue at the present time, equally for outer garments, lingerie and furnishings, we are now publish'ng, under the title Motifs for Embroideries, 6th Series, a booklet containing numerous patterns of this type, worked in bright colors, either plain or shaded. They are chiefly executed in straight stitch, upright or slanting, cross stitch and its variations, stroke stitch,

chain stitch and weaving stitch.

—

Fabrics. All kinds of fabrics whose threads can be counted are suitable for the reproduction of these motifs. Our originals were embroidered upon a cream linen material. To obtain a pattern in larger size, a coarser fabric must be chosen, or else the number of threads to be covered by each stitch can be doubled or trebled on the other hand, a more closely woven linen will produce a smaller pattern. ;

If it be desired to embroider our designs upon cloth or any other fabric whose threads cannot be counted, the embroidery must be worked over an auxiliary canvas previously fixed straight across the material and which will then be drawn out, thread by thread, when the embroidery is completed.

Materials. — The originals of our motifs were worked in D-M-C Pearl cotton (Coton No. 3, and some of them finished off with D-M-C Pearl cotton (Coton perle) No. 8. For finer fabrics than the linen used by us, it would be best to make use of D-M-C Pearl perle)

D-M-C Special stranded cotton (Mouline special) No. 25, even D-M-C Embroidery cotton, special quality (Coton k broder, qualite speciale) in medium or fine numbers. A large proportion of our patterns could be reproduced in D-M-C Embroidery twist (Retors a broder) No. 4 (dull cotton) worked upon a thick fabric, this thread gives an entirely original and decorative effect to embroideries which cotton (Cotonperle) Nos. 5 to 12 or or

;

are

meant

to cover large surfaces.

Besides the articles which we have already mentioned, we can also recommend, for executing our patterns, D-M-C Floss flax (lyin floche), D-M-C Rayon for embroidery (Rayonne a broder) and, for silk embroideries, D-M-C Persian silk (Sole de Perse).

In addition to the plates illustrating this work, there will be found a large selection worked on counted threads in the following publications of the D-M-C Library Motifs for Embroideries, 3rd and 4th Series; Czecho-Slovakian Embroideries; 1st and 2nd Series; Turkish Embroideries; Bulgarian Jugoslavian Embroideries, Embroideries ; Morocco Embroideries. of

They can be obtained at haberdashers, needlework shops, &:c. the variety of articles bearing the D-M-C trade mark is however so great that it is impossible, even for the best supplied stores, to keep them all in stock. Nevertheless, retailers in touch with the manufacturers, DOIyL,FUS-MIEG & C'^, SocrfeTfi anonyme, or their agent-stockists being able to procure even quite small quantities of goods, consumers can always obtain their requirements through them. ;

DMC LIBRARY a view to developing the taste for fancy needlework and to making better known the uses of the articles which it manufactures especially for sewing, embroidery, knitting, crochet, &c., the firm C'fi, SocieTe; anonymE, has had published a series of works which, taken as a whole, DOL,IvPUS-MIEG

by their artistic value, the choice of designs, and the care devoted to everything hitherto done in this way, they are sold at prices well below their market value; it has only been possible to publish them under such favorable conditions owing to the large numbers printed and the aim in view. Each work is pubhshed in several languages and is composed of a series of unpublished and very varied designs, printed in black or in colors and accompanied in certain cases by explanatory text. Thanks to the clarity and perfection with which the reproductions have been carried out, it is moreover easy to utilize most of the patterns without having recourse to the text, which is of secondary importance. There follows a list of these pubUcations, which can be obtained of booksellers, haberdashers, needlework shops or, if need be, from the CompToir Alsacien de BrodertE, anct.

The success obtained by our first "ABCs" authorizes us to believe that they meet a real need, and others will follow The
