SPEARS: With the help of Book 1, I have just made a slip cover for a wing chair. I never would have tried it if your directions had not been so clear. I am now planning an other slip cover and draperies which I would like to trim in fringe. Will you please show me with a sketch how I should sew the fringe? Also should the draperies and chair match?—M. J. N.” So here we have the sketches showing how to apply fringe in the seams of slip covers and also for an edge finish. The raw edge of the material in the lower sketch is turned to the right side and fringe is stitched over it. If figured draperies are used, the best effect is obtained if not more than one slip cover in the room is of figured material. Plain slip covers may match one or more of the' colors in draperies, rug or wall paper. '■ NOTE: Now is the time to give your house a fresh start. Crisp new curtains; a bright slip cover; a new lampshade; or ottoman will do the trick. Make these things yourself. Mrs. Spears’ Book 1— SEWING* for the Home Decora tor, shows you how with step by step, easy to follow sketches. Book 2—Gifts, Novelties and Embroid ery, will give you a new interest for' long winter evenings. It con tains complete directions for mak ing many useful things. Books are 25 cents each; if you order both books, Patchwork Quilt Leaf let is included free; it contains 36 authentic stitches illustrated in de tail. Address: Mrs. Spears, 216 S. Desplaines St., Chicago, 111.
