It covers the dress from shoulder to knee, front and back, so nothing underneath needs protecting. View A sets two deep patch pockets across the hips, cut from cretonne or chintz so a printed motif (tulips, on the envelope) becomes the decoration, and binds every edge in contrasting double-fold bias tape. View B makes the apron in one fabric with bias-bound edges and adds two matching pot holders interfaced with flannelette, all three trimmed with the included tic-tac-toe embroidery transfer, worked in six-strand cotton with one color matching the binding and two others. McCall called it \"easily made\": six pattern pieces (front, back, tie string, two pocket styles, and the pot holder) and under two yards of 35\" fabric.

Where a half apron only guarded a skirt, the cobbler covered a whole housedress front and back, and its generous pockets held clothespins, a dish towel, or a pot holder close at hand. McCall dressed the practical shape up with the playful touches its early 1950s aprons are loved for: printed chintz pockets, bright bias binding, and a tic-tac-toe game stitched right onto the pocket and its matching pot holder. McCall also issued a little girls' version as Pattern 1712, so mother and daughter could wear the game together. The design clearly kept selling: three years after its 1952 copyright, McCall was still offering 1713 at its original 25 cents in the July 1955 catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe envelope front and back are shown as scanned, framed on our blue mat without retouching, so the artwork appears in its true color and condition.

Each strap is cut on a curve and faced at the front, so together they form a broad V across the shoulders, almost like a shawl collar over the dress, and the back view on the envelope shows them tied behind the neck. Below the bib the apron flares into a full skirt finished with a deep gathered ruffle, and tie strings close it at the waist. The star of the design is the pocket, cut and faced in the shape of a flowerpot, with flowers growing up out of it onto the bib: the blossoms are fabric appliqué (one 4½\" x 9\" piece of material), the stems are bias binding, and the details are embroidered in six-strand cotton from the transfer. View A makes the apron from ⅞ yard with the straps, ruffle, and pocket in a contrast fabric; View B is cut all in one fabric and edged with 4½ yards of rick rack.

Aprons had become a little wardrobe of their own, worn for hostessing as much as for housework, and McCall filled its apron line with novelty pockets and appliqué that turned a practical cover-up into something to show off. The flowerpot pocket, with flowers climbing out onto the bib, is one of the most charming of these. McCall also made a selling point of its \"Electric Blue\" transfer, which the envelope promises will stamp on both dark and light material, so the flowers could be embroidered on any fabric the sewer chose. A store stamp on the front shows this copy was sold in Portland, Oregon, and McCall was still offering the design two years later in its January 1952 Economy Group catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe envelope front and back are shown as scanned, framed on our blue mat without retouching, so the artwork appears in its true color and condition.

The best part is the game itself: a small case holds a tic-tac-toe board stiffened with cardboard, and it slips into the pocket so it goes wherever she goes; on the envelope, one girl has it out on a bench, ready to play. Four pattern pieces (apron, pocket, game case, and cardboard game foundation) and a transfer for the embroidery, worked in six-strand cotton, one skein each of three colors.

Its signature is the hem: on one side the lower edge sweeps up into a deep curved scroll, and each view decorates that curve differently. View A, shown in pink, trims the scroll with a floral motif cut from a chintz remnant. View B, in white, pairs the organdy with a chintz waistband, a chintz pocket, and scattered chintz appliqués; the pattern prints suggested shapes for cutting them. View C, in charcoal, follows the scroll with piping and a rose-and-leaf appliqué from the Electric Blue transfer, embroidered in bright green, light yellow green, and black. Views A and C take 1¼ yards of 36\" organdy (1 yard of 42\"); View B takes 1⅛ yards of organdy plus ½ yard of chintz. Five pattern pieces and one transfer, with ¼\" seams suited to fine fabric and a Cut and Sew Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"fashion-history\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Moment in Fashion History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1950 the half apron had moved out of the kitchen and into the living room. Sheer organdy aprons like this one were worn over a party dress to serve guests, protecting the dress without hiding it, and McCall's envelope makes the point by dressing all three models for an evening at home, in off-the-shoulder necklines and bracelets. Organdy is crisp enough to hold the scrolled hem and gathers, and sheer enough that chintz roses and appliqué seem to float on it. McCall made a selling point of its \"Electric Blue\" transfer, promising it would stamp on both dark and light material, which is what made a rose on charcoal organdy possible. The design was still in McCall's catalog three years later, in December 1953, sharing page 675 with McCall 1279, a bow apron McCall had been selling since the 1940s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe envelope front and back are shown as scanned, framed on our blue mat without retouching, so the artwork appears in its true color and condition.
