POCKET FOR CLOTHES-PINS

A great convenience is the apron pocket for clothes pins. It takes nearly one yard of calico to make it, the apron or pouch being fifteen inches in length, and nearly as wide. Round the corner at the bottom. At the top, on each side of the front, two inches from the middle, cut out a strip nine inches long, and one and one-half inch wide for pockets. Bind them with lighter colored fabric than the apron, that they may be readily seen. Gather into a band and button at the back, or put on strings and tie.
