FIG. 59. 70 DAINTY WORK FOR PLEASURE AND PROFIT.
Text Appearing After Image:
DETAIL FOR ROMAN EMBROIDERY -SEE PAGE 68, ART OR FLAT EMBROIDERY. ^I care, so as not to cut either the buttonhole edge or one of the connectinglines. This completes the Roman embroidery proper, but, in later days, someembellishments have been added to the design. They consist of fancy fill-ing stitches on certain parts of the material that is not cut away. Figure 6oshows a honey-comb stitch applied to a portion of the design, and thespaces marked i and 2 on figure 58 can be similarly treated; also the scrollportion of design, marked 3 on figure 60, can be filled with some otherstitch, thus giving variety to the design. There is a style of Roman embroidery much used where the edges arefinished with a buttonhole short and long stitch worked on the materialwithout the strengthening aid of the German cord. For some purposesthis form of the work is very pretty, but it is not in the least durable andshould not be used on articles that are to receive much wear or that are tobe frequently lau
