Sew This Dress for

\X/TIEN war came to Fintand a

refugees was started in our com-
munity. Now J4 women meet faith-
fui!y and make about 50 woolen
dresses every week, in sizes 9 to
!4. The group is financed through

gifts of money and materia! which
they themselves have solicited.
They bought the simplest dress
pattern that they could find and
then eliminated every unnecessary
detail. "Work for quantity—don't
bother with a collar or pocket,"
the county Red Cross leader urged.
I have just sketched here some
short cuts used to speed up pro-
duction; and as I write this, look-
ing out of my studio window over
a beautiful and peaceful garden, I
am trying not to think of winter
and what it will be like in Europe
when some child is wearing this
little blue woolen frock.
