1864.
Elaborate
Embroidery.
But
the
most
elaborate
kinds
of
embroidery
are
those
which
represent
flowers,
fruit,
and
other
devices
on
any
material;
and
these
may
be
divided
into
white
and
coloured
embroidery.
1865.
Broderie
Anglaise.
White
embroidery,
or
embroidery
on
muslin,
is
used
for
a
great
variety
of
articles
of
ladies'
dress.
The
simplest
is
termed
Broderie
Anglaise.
In
this
style,
the
pattern
is
either
in
satin
stitch,
or
from
left
to
right,
formed
of
holes
cut
out
of
the
muslin,
and
sewed
over
with
embroidery
cotton.
The
great
art
in
working
broderie
is
to
make
the
holes
all
of
the
same
size,
and
to
take
the
stitches
closely
and
regular.
1866.
Satin
Stitch.
Satin
stitch
is
a
smooth
raised
work,
used
for
leaves,
flowers,
&c.
It
is
done
by
first
tracing
the
outlines
accurately
with
soft
cotton,
then
taking
stitches
from
point
to
point
of
the
part
to
be
raised,
so
as
to
have
the
greatest
thickness
of
cotton
in
the
centre,
and
sewing
it
over,
in
stitches
taken
close
together,
but
slightly
slanting,
and
completely
across
the
part
outlined.
The
veining
of
leaves
is
generally
formed
by
taking
the
stitches
from
the
vein
to
the
edge,
first
on
one
side
and
then
on
the
other.
The
borders
of
embroidered
muslin
collars,
&c.,
are
usually
finished
with
buttonhole
stitch,
worked
either
the
width
of
an
ordinary
buttonhole,
or
in
long
stitches,
and
raised
like
satin
stitch.
Eyelet
holes
are
made
by
piercing
round
holes
with
a
stiletto,
and
sewing
them
round.
