This elaborate design should not be attempted by beginners in the art of embroidery; it is worked in overcast stitch, raised and veined satin stitch; the tendrils are entirely worked in graduated overcast; the name is placed over a graceful spray of wild flowers worked in the above-named stitches.  This pattern, although originally designed to be worked on net or fine muslin, is far more effective when worked on cambric or fine lawn.
