realization of time by a sweet small sewing girl in elements really of
that time.

xxxxxThis
dress consists of a small blouse kimono furnished in the neckline of a
frowned steering wheel and a small skirt frowned to the waist. Two
steering wheels, also frowned, furnish it on the sides .<
xxxxx
The pattern gives half of the blouse which you cut with the material
folded in double. To assemble the blouse, put the point O on the
opposite point O , the point P on the opposite point P and make a
sewing. Proceed also for the other side of the blouse.
xxxxxThe
pattern of the skirt is also given half, you cut it also with the
tissue folded in double; in the middle of the back, you reserve a small
slit.
xxxxxThe
waist of the skirt is frowned and sewn to the blouse. On the sides of
the skirt, you arrange two small frowned steering wheels, which are,
about, the width in V V, - That is the steering wheels do not exist
either behind or front -. Steering wheel of the neckline, similar to
the steering wheel of the skirt, is a little longer, and measure 20 cms
in length.
xxxxLet
us see now the embroidery of these steering wheels. It is original
excessively, very fashionably and however very easy to execute, it
gives a great character to this beautiful dress.
xxxxxIt
is a simple buttonhole from which points are spread and of different
size: a long point, a short point, etc....
Two sketches show you how the needle passes under the buckle which forms between every point. xxxxx
This embroidery complies with silk or cotton of colour standing out
against that of the dress. On the black or the navy blue, you will
embroidersilk old blue, orange-coloured or green jade; on Bordeaux in
pale blue, black or old blue; on the green, in blue pastel, lemon or
purple; on the chestnut or orange-coloured, old red or old blue.
