DURING ENSUING DIVER SION, FINISHES RICE CUSTARD PUDDING IN THREE MOUTHFULS 610VA5 UIHUArtS 'NEW IDEAS '-joA' atto-me- By RUTH WYETH SPEARS T^\0 YOU remember how old- fashioned comforters used to be tufted? They were made of two layers of fabric with cotton between and every four inches or so in rows the three layers of material were caught together with a stitch of wool yarn double which was then tied twice and CUT COTTON 3 /4’' SMALLER THAN THE FABRIC SEWTO THE SEAMS AFTER THEY ARE STITCHED SCREW TO A BOARD clipped to make a fluffy tuft. Well, that is exactly the way many of today’s smartest chair covers are made. A cover of this sort re-' deemed this old rocker and re vealed its hidden charms. The cover is plain, medium green glazed chintz tufted with' dark green yarn and three inch, dark green fringe is used aroimd i the bottom. A long zipper makes' a center back closing. Each sec-' tion of the cover was fitted on the chair in the muslin lining first 1 and these pieces were used as] patterns for cutting the chintz, I also the cotton which was trimmed to be 3 ,4-inch smaller all around/ After the pieces were tufted, as’ shown at the upper right, the) seams were stitched up. Long stitches were then made on the in-4 side to catch the edges of the cotr ; ton in place. * • * NOTE: Are you planning to make slip covers this Spring?
