NEW BED LINEN
The exclusive craze for coloured silk sheets has certainly died, but It was a fad which has popularised coloured bedwear. Tinted linen is the latest material to be employed. It has the advantage of crispness which somehow seems so necessary in a wellregulated bed. Another new note is the preference for bright tones such as strawberry, yellow ochre and duck’s egg blue. A slight relief Is found in bright linen binding with a criss-cross design of narrow white bands. There are matchiY IS x? 1 i low_slips and bolster cases, and the bedsnreads are made large enough to touch the floor. The conservative followers of pure white wear have novelties to choose from Lace insertions are beautiful but they are expensive and not very practical, a. far more durable idea being delicate insertions of hem-stitch-ing in which intricate patterns of dowers and leaves may be traced.
