Those ladies who have not a great deal of leisure at their command, will find the employmentof the wavy braid a very good substitute for the more elaborate labors of the needle, and thatpatterns arranged for the purpose in which a moderate degree of the cut-out work is introducedproduce a very good effect. The one we are now giving is suitable for various purposes, butespecially for an underskirt to be worked over a broad hem. The thin under lines of the braidare each laid on separately in the simple curve of the festoon, the upper line only being- formedinto the ornamental rosette, at the point of each division. The rosette which appears within therecess of each-festoon is commenced in the middle, the last end being slipped under the crossingsof the braid, and so concealed. Another way is to pass the ends of the braid through a stilettohole made in the material, and fasten them down at the back. The holes are all in the cut-outembroidery, having a well-raised sewn over line all round
