SAVE 31c Women's Column BY MARY GUST One day last week, 1 wandered into the upholsterer's shog,and spent some time looking around. What a fascinating place it is, with its quaint furniture and lustrous old glass. In one corner a piece of Bros -point needlework caught my eye. It had been worked to replace a worn chair seat and my first thought was, "There's an asnbitious woman— embroidering her own, chair seats!" A floral � bouquet on a brown background, I could net help but think how beautiful the design was and how unsuit- able the background. However, tastes duffer and probably the needlewoman was very fond ofbrown, even though It did nothing for the doral centre. Idly, I turned the piece over to look at the back. Oh my, what a shock! The intricate centre was as neat on the back as on the front, but that brown background—not 'one single thread had been fastened off— the whole thing was a mess of loose ends. Of course it was obvious what had happened—the canva had been bought with the centre already embroidered, All the purchaser bad had to do was work in the background— which ackgroundwhich was probably why the color chosen ,was so _unsuitable. I have never understood why anyone would buy a canvas with the best part of the design already worked, but after seeing this effort it occurred to me that partially worked canvases are intended for the lazy woman. Only a very . lazy woman would leave the back of her work in suck a disgusting state, and when I held the work up, this was con- firmed by the fact that the piece had not even been stretched. Because it had been worked in the hand rather than in a frame, the canvas had pulled diagonally out of shape and it had been left to the upholsterer to stretch it back. I can remember, as a girl, learning to embroider, and at every stage of the work my teacher would carefully examine the back. If it was not exactly as neat as the front—then I spent tedious hours unpicking it end doing it properly. Yon might say, "But nobody ever looks at the back—so why bother about it?" Of course, a lot of people go through life with that attitude. All paint and powder and a pretty dress on top, with pinned up underclothing beneath. My grandmother often used to speculate on the fate awaiting such people, "Just wait till she gets knocked down in the street and taken to hospital—with all those pins in her underclothes!" That's the whole point, isn't it? We should always keep the backs of our livres as neat and tidy as the fronts—for who knows when they might be exposed to view. And even if they are NEVER exposed, WE know they are there, WE have to live with them. During the war, the roof of a famous cathedral in Eng- land was,,damaged by incendiary bombs and workmen went up to repair it. The choir stalls, carved in the early Middle Ages, were exquisitely beautiful and absolutely irreplace- •able, and the roof had to be repaired immediately to keep the rain from damaging them. Right up under the roof, the workmen found rare treasure. Each beam, hidden from sight in the shadows, had been carved with the same loving care and attention to detail as the choirstalls down on the ground. For centuries they ,,had stood there --unseen and' unnoticed- a sheer waste of the artist's work. Unseen, did- you say? A waste? Ah no—for while the congregation' below could not see them—God could! See you next week!
