Showing Method of Working Sofa Pillow.
The engraving shows exactly how the work is done, using the lighter shade of silk and the seamstress' feather stitch for the four corners around each square. The center figure is worked in the darker shade of silk, with the X in the lighter shade. When the decoration is complete, finish the pillow as follows: Gather the ruffle double on the raw edge, and, putting it between the front and back pieces of the cushion, sew together on the wrong side on three sides of the pillow. Blind-stitch the fourth side after the down cushion has been placed inside. Other figures and methods of working will suggest themselves to every needleworker. This pillow is a very inexpensive one.
