Get some Of these practical every
day necessities finished up now and
have them all ready by the time
summer arrives. You'll need plenty
of pinafore aprons, house dresses
and pajamas and you can't pos
sibly have prettier ones than these!
Each Of them is not only supremely
practical and comfortable, but also
has something special about it. to
lift it out of the ordinary. These
patterns are all good repeaters," I"
the type you'll make up time and
again. And they're all so easy to
make that even beginners can enjoy
working with them. Each includes
a step-by-step sew chart to guide
you.
It's as pretty as a dress, this pin
afore apron Q888-B). Cut on a
true princess line, it covers your
dress completely and fits with satis-
tying snugness; as you know, there's
nothing more annoying than a slip
up, slidey apron that doesn't fit any
where. Gathered onto a square
yoke and trimmed with braid or
embroidery, it really has a lot CT
style, even though it is merely an
apron and a very practical one at
that. You'll never nina being sur

these pajamas Q794-B have a
quaintness and charm that belongs
to the days of anti-macassers and
broughams And that very fem

proved by young moderns Of 1910.
The trousers are well-cut and am
pie. The top hangs comfortably
full from a shoulder yoke and is
trimmed with wedge-shaped pock-
cts for parking your vagrant hapky
and to add piquant charm. If
there's a young graduate or a bride
on your gift list right now, she'll
love to have you make her pair
of just such pajamas-and you'll
want several for yourself. Broad
cloth, silk crepe, seersucker and ba-
tiste are pretty materials for this
design.

the crew members and Director John
