Rear cover notes: "Silk ribbon treasures will certainly be your finished product when you use this book for inspiration. Martha Pullen offers you a complete encyclopedia of silk ribbon embroidery in combination with smocking, either silk ribbon or cotton floss. A beautiful child's dress pattern, Morgan Ross (sizes 2-10), has instructions for either a smocked front bodice or a plain fabric one. The back options offered are 'to the waist' or high yoke. There are six collar patterns to use with either dress variation. Twenty three smocking design plates will tickle your fancy as well as the sixteen other silk ribbon designs for collars and other projects. Fifty one silk ribbon embroidery stitches are clearly and simply illustrated so you will be able to stitch them in a jiffy. Smocking instructions are complete along with 'how to use' the smocking pleating machine. As if this weren't enough, a spectacular silk ribbon alphabet has been included to use on all types of projects from clothing to home decorating. Even if you are a first time silk ribbon embroiderer or smocker, you will find the instructions easy enough for you to achieve success!"
