Excerpt from A Treatise on Lace-Making, Embroidery, and Needlework With Irish Flax Threads That this is the age of linen is strongly indicated. Table decora tions, doilies, centre-pieces, etc., are Showing less and less of the fine filo embroidery in color, which requires so much time and patience to accomplish, and is often ruined by the first laundering. Even the small doilies sold for filo embroidery have edges but tonholed with Irish flax floss. Lace and white linen embroideries, which may be easily cleansed and lose none of their beauty, are chosen for table use, and the demand is, further, in household decoration, for articles that may be quickly and easily produced, giving the best effect for the least expenditure of time.
