IDEA FOR SEPARATE BLOUSE

Home Needleworker May Make One From Many Different Kinds - ■ of Materials. : J

Many of the new separate blouses in paisley, Persian and dresden designs are being made from crepe handkerchiefs, scarfs and mufflers. This is a hint which may well be taken by the home needleworker, as these blouses, of the silky crepe, are easy to cut and make up. Usually there is figured design, in the middle, then a band of plain white or a light color and a figured border. This white strip must be allowed for, and it looks well as the lower part of the blouse and the inside of the sleeves, thus giving a sort of bolero effect Under sheer veiling these crepe handkerchief waists are draped, and they lend themselves readily to this treatment If ,you have too many scarfs of this sort, or simply wish an original blouse to match the scarf worn by everybody nowadays, think of this Paris idea and act accordingly.
