In the second arrangement, the difficulty of half shapesfor the left and right edges arises; and in the third, the further difficulty of topand bottom halves, as well as quarter units for the four outside corners of thepaper, has to be overcome. It may be necessary to have some members of the classseparate the paper along one of the creases, or fold it under, to help them to under-stand how the half units should be drawn on the edges of the UNIT PLACED IN THE CENTRE OF EVERYSQUARE, AND ALSO AT THE INTER-SECTION OF THE CREASES APPLIED DESIGN FIGURED MUSLIXS A delightful pi-oblem for the pupils is the putting of a surface pattern onplain white muslin. The pattern should be rather small and dainty, and beforethe crayons are used they may be sharpened. The really good results should bepressed with a hot iron. In the case of some crayons this will make the coloursfast. If there is a school doll, the best figured muslin resulting from the lessonmight be made into a dress for it. Only those who have previously made asuccessful pattern should be allowed to work on the muslin. STRIPES These may be used in the making of borders and surface patterns. Two orthree stripes of different widths may be put around the edge of a square of paper DESIGN: STEIPES 85 which is being thought of as a handkercliief. A similar border would be suitablefor the edge of a tray, a box, or a basket, or for the ends of a towel, or a rug wovenwith st
