DAINTY PILLOW EASILY MADE

Adornment for the Crib of His Majesty Calls Only for a Little Loving Work.

A dainty little pillow for king baby can be made with very little work. Cut from dotted swiss to fit an oblong pillow about 16 by 12 inches, then cover with pink, blue or pale green satin. Wash silk can be used for thtf covering, and it can be taken off and washed very easily. The dots on the swiss are of a size smaller than coin spots. The very small dots aro also quite pretty. The cover is sewed up at the sides and left open at the ends. Each end and wound the corners to the edge of the pillow is marked with a small scallop and worked In buttonholing, either in white mercerized cotton or in a tone to match the lining. Eyelets are worked across each end, two inches from the scallops, or where the pillow ends. The cover can be laced on with white baby ribbon, which has a rosette at each of the corners, or can be tied in small bows. This style of cover is also convenient for pique pillows that have no other trimming.
