ORGANDI DINNER SETS
Organdi is made into delightful afternoon tea and dinner “ ensembles," and they are so lovely that they ought to fill one- with the desire “to make." All that is required is white organdi, linen floss, and embroidery frame, and tho patience to concentrate on embroidering unique designs on somewhat heavier lines than shado\v work. \ Tho organdi is cut to size and bordered all round the edges with a blanket stitcli in white floss, and the embroidered designs spaced over the surface are chosen from animals—deer, for example, because their shapes form good silhouettes against the delicacy of an organdi background. Napkins are embroidered according to size, and table cloths, too, with table napkins to match. Those are really lovely things for feminine parties or special occasions, and their place of origin is Italy.
