New Fashion Takes
Cue From France
A new fashion for little American !
girls is inspired by the dainty smock j
of the petite French miss. Called the
“Madeleine.” this charming little cot
ton garment is as attractive as a pina-i
fore, but as sturdy as rugged blue
jeans.
The blue denim “Madeleine” fas- P
tens at the shoulders. Its huge pock
ets go halfway around the garment, :
which is long enough to be worn over
dresses. , i!
The comfortable “Madeleine” -'ls j (
washable, easy to keep fresh and!
clean.
Pre-Cut Draperies
Ease Sewing Job ■ j
“Do it yourself” has become a by
word of the American household.
Throughout the country both men and j
women are enthusiastically taking
over many of the jobs that formerly
bad to be done by professionals.
Manufacturers are coming to the j
aid of the “do it yourself” home-own-i.
ers. All sorts of. new pre-cut and |
packaged products are going on the ■
market to make things easier for the •
amateurs.
I attest .entry 'ti the do-it-yourself
field is a package of pre-cut draperies
which home sewers can make with
little effort.
Each package contains a matching '
pair of cotton fabric panels, pre-cut;
special pleating tape for making pinch
or box pleats; plus thread, pins,
hooks and how-to-do-it instructions,
These cotton drapery panels come in
a range of print and solid colors. The |
draperies are simply styled for a|
minimum of sewing.
