FOR BEGINNER WITH NEEDLE
kimono Bath Wrapper, Work on
Which VIII Delight the Small
= Daughter of the House.

One OF the incest little garments on
which to teach the small daughter
sewing is the kimono bath wrapper
for herself or little sister. The days
of patchwork have wandered on into
a distant past, with the little girl
of long ago. Our modern child is not
content to piece patches" indefinitely
for some far-off bed quilt. She can
not get up an interest in anything
without visible result in the near
future.
The child is not to blame. She is a
product of the day and generation;
but II devolves upon the mothers OF
the day to substitute more interesting
sewing with an. evident result II the
daughter is to clothe herself at some
not too distant day.
You can stir the interest Of child
by giving her an actual garment. al
though a simple one, like the kimono
bathrobe or bedroom gown, so that
she may feel the joy of accomplish
ment 1t may actually appeal more
than fancy work to the practical one,
and an overplus of embroidery work
should be avoided if the child is to
feel any responsibility in the matter
of its own clothing.
Something pretty is advisable for a
beginning, and may be found in the
soft texture and color of delicate
blue or old rose albatross with the
long border of Persian or Dresden
ribbon.
Patterns for these may be found
cut in two very simple ways. one with
a yoke and loose separate sleeves; an
other with the sleeves cut as part
OF the gown and sewed with the I'M
derarm seam. These little robes fur
nish most attractive sewing and an
added interest may be found In max
ing them over dfminutive pattern
as a breakfast gown for baby sister.
