Chrysanthemum Design No. 406 C.

These designs are specially adapted for beginners. The 7 and 9 inch sizes make pretty doilies, and the larger linens work up into very attractive centerpieces, tray cloths, and bureau scarfs.

Flowers.—Work solid. Begin the edge of petals with Corticelli Filo Silk, 674, shading lighter to the calyx with 673 and 678. Make some petals lighter by omitting 674. The petals in the background should be darker than those in the foreground. Use 781 for the calyx. A study of Colored Plate XXII will be found helpful to beginners.

Leaves.—Work solid, beginning the points with 781, shading darker to midvein with 782. Work the stems in outline stitch with 782. (Not Difficult.)
