Ladies' Dorcas Apron

Written instructions only. Pattern dated 1896.

Materials Required: 4-1/2 Yds. 24" (yes, 24") wide fabric.

This Vintage Revivals pattern is only one size; the original size. The pattern envelope, instructions and pattern pieces are unedited. The older the pattern the more likely it is to have limited instructions. This pattern is printed on blue line paper and packaged in plastic.
