Summer Outfits That Cost You Almost Nothing

T

HIS isn't the time of year when we want to be bothered with a lot of elaborate sewing. On the other

hand, it's the time when we seem to need most clothes, what with summer sports, week-end jaunts, full-blown holi- days, to say nothing of hum-drum affairs like business and home-running.

So during this month I am choosing patterns that are specially simple to inake.

For instance, you can make in a single evening any of the hats pictured here to-day, And it's smart to have a hat of the same material as your dress or 7 suit.

They are all cut from Flat- ferick Pattern 6001, obtainable 1 any store. If you order your pattern to-day and get your materini to-morrow you ean make it Sunday evening and wear it on Monday.

The pattern include plecer for two quite different style huts, and each of these styles inuy be worn in three different ways. So you get plenty of variety for your one pattern.

Week-end MORRISON PIANO

Now leave the crown for a few minutes while you see to the brim. This is cut in one sweeping curve from two thleknesses of material. Line both the upper and lower pieces with book muslin, stitch the side. seam of each so that the two circles are complete and then stitch both etreles together to form a nice firm brim.

Work double rows of machine stitching at regular intervals; add a ribbon band to the inside edge of the brim, then on to this band stitch the crown, Slip another short piece of doubled fabric through the open. Ing in the crown and tie it armly in rabbit's ear knot right at the top. Add a narrow baby of stitched fabric round the crown and the hit is ready to wear.

Contrast and Colour

YOU could make it in linen with a contrasting effect-gay a navy crown and white brim to wear with a short white linen coat

and navy dress and navy and white shoes.

Or it would look very gay at the seaside made of one of those jolly novelty cotton fabrics printed with little green and red ships or comic th or bird designs.

This game hat could be made of taffeta silk, all in one colour with- out the top knot and with the brim turned down save at one side, where it
