One of the best 1900 caterers gives the exact length over the table that the cloth should hang. This is eighteen inches at the narrowest point, a width which at the corners, makes of course, a deeper sweep. The full yard-square napkin is the most approved dinner size. although many hostesses of wealth and taste prefer the seven-eighths size.
The artistic needlework in the March 1901 Ladies'World magazine is particularly on Russian Honiton and Rennaissance lace. The designs include a butterfly for a sofa pillow, and a table cover in Renaissance lace.
