BY PATRICIA SCOTT

You couldn't sleep more
sweetly or comfortably than
in this dream Of a gown.
Make it in no-iron cotton
plisse, or a blend of Dacron
and cotton, and trim it with
bias tape and rickrack.
From the measurements.
given here, this loose fitting,
waltz length gown can fit,
almost any size. The trick is
in shirring the neckline and
sleeves to fit you. Then you
just tie the rest in with a
belt.
You'll need: Two yards
cotton plisse or Dacron and
cotton in a pretty print;
seven yards double fold bias
tape in a color to match
the print; four yards rick
rack, same color as tape.
To Make:
/. Fold fabric in half and
cut following measurements
in the diagram. Body of
gown should measure 81
inches from underarm to
hem edge; 81 inches along
hem edge; 7 inches across
diagonal sleeve seam and 81
inches across folded edge for
neck. Sleeves are 22x5.
2. After gown has been cut
out, cut through the folded
21-inch neck edge so that
you have two separate pieces
for front and back of gown.
Seam allowance is % inch.
8. Bind one 22-inch edge
Of each sleeve piece.
4. Before sewing side
seams of gown together, you
will find it easier to join
sleeves to gown first, since
no fitting is required for
body. To join sleeves to
front and back Of gown:
With wrong sides together,
pin 6-ineh sleeve edge to Z
/. inch diagonal edge with long
raw sleeve edge toward neck
line. BaSte on seam line,
preparing Tor a French seam.

: close to y stitching. Remove
basting and press seam to
one side. Turn seam to in
side and stitch on seam line.
completing your Ere n C h
seam. Hand hem the re-
manning edge at under arm.
S. Join front and back of
gown together, using a
French seam as you did for
sleeves.
6. Bind entire neckline
edge. Then, bind hem edge.
7. To fit neckline and
sleeve: With 2 rows of long
stitching, one inch from the
edge, shir sleeve edge and
entire neckline until they fit
you comfortably,
8. Stitch one row of rick
rack over Shirring on sleeve
and neckline. Stitch one row
of rickrack one inch above
hem edge.
9. Make q tie belt, 11a
yards long, by stitching
folded edge Of tape together.

growers have approved mar
