Chinese Sewing Bag.

As today Is a day of fancy stltchery, of knitting, of crochet and of embroidery among women who are busy and women who are at leisure, workbags are very important. Hundreds of them are being made for gifts, but the newest idea is the bag of heavy Chinese mandarin embroidery, the top of which is run through a jade bracelet and the sides of which are trimmed with those funny little Chinese ornaments in green wood and beads that are put on the lanterns and can be bought at the Oriental shops.
