I 1 HOME DRESSMAKING. I &- l A CHARMING AND SIMPLE FROCK. 1 I think Dame Fashion must have had a specially kindly eye this year upon the r woman who makes her own clothes., for I cannot ever remember ever seeing taich beautiful simplicity of style as marks the great majority of the garments shown for the present winter. Oostumes are mainly of the severe strictly tailored type; frocks arc largely made in what our French friends can the "ehem-ise" style, that, is to say, they are one--piece garments held in just, a trifie at the waist line by a loose. belt; and blouses are singularly tree from tucks, frills,, -and I [Refer to H. D. 260. j other superfluities which absorb so much of a dressmaker's time.. Many of the most charming frocks are almost extraordinarily simple in style, and have only a touch of fur and perhaps just a suggestion of em- broidery as their ciwre 'tripixnivg, Our illustration thi* week sholwo one of these delightful indoor gowns, the pattern of. which is so very simple. that even the most inexperienced worker might make the dress" with complete -success** THE MATERtAL.—Thig dress might, be | made of almost any nice, soft material.: Among the most suitable stuffs for this de- sign. I would suggest crepe de Chine, sohenne, velvet, velveteen, serge, gabardine, and faced cloth; and of all these the most effective, in. my opinion, is velveteen; for i -velvet, though the loveliest of, all. fabrics, • is so expensive this season that it ia out of the reach of all but the well-to-do. How. eVfer, whatever material you may decide upon, you will need 41 yards ef 40in. wide, fabric. THE PATTERN.-The pattern includes three pieces—front, back, and sleeves. In addi- tion, you will peed a strip of material about five inches wide for the beli, -,but no ijziti: tern is given of this because .it-is simply a straight bfind of, atuff. ");<>1 ioill re- Imember t3i a't no turnings a, r e al- lowed for ia the- pattern, po y 1,1, should leave about three quarters of an inch on each eeam edge and ample material for turning up on each hem edge. THE CUTTING OUT. — Before cut- ting out, lay. the pattern against -the; figure and iQaTce. any little alterations; that may be neces- sary. It is much easier and more- satisfactory to dor -this in the pattern than in the material after it is cut out. Fold the material selvedges together, and lay the pattern upon it, as shown in the diagram, taking care that the straight edge of the front ccmes to the fold of the material. THE MAICING.—Join up the under-arm and t the shoulder seams. Press out, -and neaten each raw edge of .the material by whipping it closely. Now face up each edge of the back of the frock fnom the neck to a point j .about six inches below the waist, with strips. of material about 2in. Wide, facing the right edge up quite flat, but arranging the IcYt- hand facing as a projecting -ivrap, -Nit run up the back seam as far. as the bottom rof. the-facing, preps out, and whip the raw edges. SeW on the buttons and make the. j, buttonholes. Now turn in the raw edges of "opening at the neck,-face them. with a band- of crossway material; and trim them with fur, gaion, er marabout. Join up the sleeve* seams, press out, and-whip the edges. Turn -in the "raw edges of the bottom of the steeve, I | face up -wit,h thin material, and trim to matbh the reek.- *:Put the -sleeve into the a-hole, and bind or whip. the raw edges. kTnrn 4tp a. fairly deep hm at the "bottom" and, in the ease of velvet or velveteen, slip- stitch it. ■_ T' HOW TO OBTAm Paper Pattern-of the -abjirf, (• ,FR^CK.

THE VEST.—The vest may be made of net. goorgette- or chiffon. It is simply an ob- long piece of material Eplit diagonalty-down the middle. The eloping edges are finished by a veined hem, and tie straight edges of each piece are hemmed. The vest ip tacked into place in the dress so that it may be taken out rmickly and easily for, washing or cleaning purposes.. f THE BLACK CAMISOLE. I Among the novelties shown during the last few weeks is the camisole of some black material or other. This. of course, is in- tended for wear under a more or less trans- parent. blouse.. and very attractive it A. The prettiest of these black camisoles are carried out in black and gold, or black and silver, net, and are. trimmed with narrow gold or Silver lace. The effect under a transparent blouse is simply charming.
