Wool Embroidery.

In spite of the presence of spring and the coming of summer, one sees wool used In some of the new trimming. Wool embroidery is still popular. and often an effect can be produced by using wool embroidery on cotton that cannot be produced in any other way. Besides, the dolors have a different quality when used in wool than in cotton or silk. Sometimes appliqued figures are used to produce a design. They are stitched down with coarse stitches usually in contrasting colors. For Instance, I charming little slip-on blouse worn recently at Atlantic City was of whitt with appliqued figures of gray woolen goods stitched down with red. They were used on the peplum and th< shoulders and the neck and sleevet were finished with a little red ea broidery.
