Mrs. Schoenbek gave an exhibition of embroidery yesterday at the B. W. A, the proceeds of which will go to the Headquarters Funds. The work was done entirely by her pupils from her own designs, The tables were covered with all kinds of attractive needlework in the shape of tea and coffee trays, evening bags in fine rafüa and wool seats after the There were also smocked children's dresses in ilk and muslin, babies' jackets and children's sheets. These would ai veal to any child who has read A. A. Milne, for they were covered with scenes representing Christopher Robin, Winnie the Pooh with his famous pot of honey, and all the other lov able animals. Another showed a little goatherd playing a flute on a rock against the rising sun.
Fire screens worked wit! waterly designs, long pictures of carnival nes with bright applique figures of jesters and peasants sporting *reamers, bed jackets of dainty pink in, all these drew exclamations of praise. Belts and collars of soft wool flowers worked on butter muslin, a sampler in intricate cross-fitch of the hymn, "God be in my head," a nursery curtain wit pastoral scene of Tyrolean dancing amid trees and lambs, spreads with gorgeous wreaths flowers, were on show. Many of the articles bore cards inscribed with the names of those who embroidered them.
The exhibition was small, but the work was exquisite and very much appreciated by all who went to see The show lasted from 10 am. toj 6 pin. leaves, a dead twig, bark, an open ing bud. These are combined with blooms to give really beautiful effect:
Flowers in season are used, since "out of season" or rare flowers are not considered in the best taste.
