DAINTY COMBING SACQUE

In Square Form, of White and Colored Batiste—Simple Directions for Its Construction.

4 dainty combing sacque that can be easily and quickly made Is in the form of a square, with,a small circle cut out at the center. Materials required for it are a yard of white batiste and three-fourths of a yard of colored batiste. Cut a 36-inch square from the white batiste. Cut a piece out for the back. Make a slit from the neck to the end of one corner, this to serve as the opening in the front. This leaves a point coming directly down the

back. Take the colored batiste and divide into strips three andu half inches wide. Join the Strips together and sew around the edges of the sacque, including the neck and up the front Tvn back the two remaining corners to form sleeves, lapping the point over on the outside, and fasten with a rosette of the ribbon. Or leave without turning, as in the Illustration.
