PATTERN 2l6
 W VI NEAT, TRAVELLED "AT-HOME" DRESS
PATTERN 2l6

A real "find"-thiS attractive housedress for mature women! For though Pattern 216 by Claire Til- den is the simplest style you've ever set needle to, the finished frock will be deftly, magically slenderizing to your figure. The open diagram view shows what 8 minimum number of pieces there are to its making, with no waistline seams to halt your needle from its straight course. The yoke, which follows the charm ing shape of the neckline, forms one piece with the tapering panel. Ric- rae used all the way from the shoul- ders to the hem gives the effect of added height and less width across. The back has center seam, with darts to fit-in the waistline smooth ly. Have belt from the front pam els or let it go all around. And choose between two sleeve versions: one comfortably flared; the other fitted and perhaps finished off with cuff. Pointed pockets are optional but very smart and useful. This cheerful frock is unusually quick to cut and sew, with the Sew ing Chart for advice.
 Pattern 216 is cut in women's sizes 36, 38, 40, 42, A. 46, 48 and 50. Size 36 requires 4 IA yards 35 inch fabric and 3% yards ric-rac.
 Send FIFTEEN CENTS (15c) in coins for this pattern. WRITE CLEARLY SIZE, NAME, ADDRESS AND STYLE NUMBER.
