An excerpt:
"It is very
popular to make Tidies, Mats, Sofa Pillows, Afghans, Bed Spreads, etc., of small
pieces of Silk and Satin...In working these stitches, use embroidery silk...The
Silk and Satin pieces are much prettier with snow flake stitches, sprays of
flowers and outline designs of children's heads, bugs, etc., worked on them...We
think the illustrations, in this book, of Crazy Patchwork, Point Russe and
Snow Flake stitches will give you a better idea of the work than any
explanations we can write..."
