Slip-Covered Boards Make Handy Screen

By RUTH WYETH SPEARS

HERE is an idea for that bed room screen. Buy four wellseasoned boards each 1 foot .wide 1 inch thick and as long as tN height you wish the screen to be also 9 hinges of the 1-inch butt type used for cupboard doors Next, select a smart chintz to co\ er your boards. To estimate th*. amount of chintz, multiply V. ( height of the screen by three an then add y 4 -yard. Now, just fol-

low the directions in the sketch and you will have your screen in no. time. And, by the way, if you are interested in making a Collection of fabric toys, complete directions for the Rag Baby on the floor are in Se.wing Book No. 2. The Sleepy Time doll on the bed and'the Bandanna doll on the shelf are in Book 4; the Cat is in Book 3. You will also* find full directions for the crocheted rug ir. Book No. 3. Directions for the lamp shades are in Book No. 1. Send 10 cents in coin for each book desired. If you order four bohks I will include patterns and directions for three of my Favorite Early American quilts, FREE. The Kaleidoscope; the Whirl Wind and the Ann Rutledge. Send order to:
