MARCH 13, 1952.
Hello, HOMEMAKERS.
By MARY E. MORGAN
Coo» County Extension Agent (Home Ec.)
I i you could have visited the
Better Dress Workshops, conduc
ted by Misses Lucy Lan and Re
becca Johnston this last week you
would agree that those ladies who
participated are going to be the
best-dressed ladies in Coos county.
One of the big advantages o f the
Work-Shop creations which can
not be measured in dollars and
cents is that the pattern was al
tered so that the garment is a
tailored-to-fit one. However, the
estimated hard-cash savings these
gals have made in constructing
their own dresses is tru ly amaz
ing.
Some unit members fe lt they
saved half the price of a store-
bought gown. And, by the way,
these estimates were actually
based on a ready-to-wear garment
from a local store.
Does home sewing pay? Well,
ask any proud wearer of a Work-
Shop garment.
A ll honors go to the ladies who
served as Project Leaders in their
own units. They have given two
days each week to the Better Dress
Workshop. They rig htly deserve
a place of honor. Would you like
to know who they are? O K here
goes.
