DAAtA1AAtA OklAA/s
These three designs are so well
suited to the purpose for which they
were intended that you'll want them
in many different materials. They
are not the kind of bread-and- but
ter fashions that stop at being USE
full and comfortable. Each of them
has its own trick of prettiness to
give it charm and make it becom-
ing. They are particularly good pat
terms to start with if you're just a
beginner at sewing, because they
are extremely easy to make. Each
is accompanied by step-by-step
sew chart.
Look fresh and crisp as daisy
when you pour the morning coffee
in this slim, slick little frock
G860-B), that offers you a choice
of two necklines. You can make it
with a tailored collar, or plain and
square at the neck-but you'll prob
ably wnnt it both ways. It's COM
Portable and unhampering to work
in, belted only at the sides, with
short sleeves and a skirt f1ared
enough at the hem for comfort.
And it's pretty, because the short
sleeves and the closing are enlivened
with scallops, the shoulders are
darted to create bosom fullness, and
bright braid gives it gayety. Make
it of cheerful gingham-checked
pink or blue and white, for instance
OR percale or calico in red or yel-
low prints; it's a wonderful way to
start the day.
There probably has never been
better proof that a decidedly prac-
tical fashion can also be pretty than
the smock- -frock which has displaced
the depressing old bags of maternity
dresses to which expectant mothers
were formerly condemned. AS you
see from 1888, this style is just
as comfortable as it can be; the
bodice-top skirt is adjustable; the
smock- blouse hangs loose and free.
But also it is young and trim and
smart, as well as the most concealing
thing possible to wear. Pleats give
it animation; contrasting collar and
cuffs add to its becomingness. Make
it up in morning cottons like cham
bray or linen; in afternoon silks like
fiat crepe or prints (smau f1gured) {.
Wear it the whole nine months, all
day long.
Busy mothers will be delighted
with 1857-B, practical school frock
than can be repeated time after
