Laundering Embroidery.

In washing colored embroidery lay it flat after wringing on a clean cloth or towel rad roll it up with a layer of cloth or towel between every two layers of the work. In this way there Is no danger of the colors running If the work is done with washable material It takes a very fast color to stand drying against Its own wet surface. Embroidered linens should never be starched. If they are ironed dry when they are wet at the beginning they will have their natural texture.
