A NURSERY TABLECLOTH
Buy some unbleached calico, cut it to the size required, turn in and hem (lecoratively with big running stitches in some gaily-coloured thread. Decorate each corner with an applique cut from any bright-coloured cretonne or plain-coloured fabric—circles, overlapping crescents, diamonds, etc.—buttonholing them down with embroidery cotton. It is astonishing how effective a small cloth of this kind can be, and it will wear “for ever.”
