Two back straps hold the apron in place, a scrolled appliqué trims each armhole, and a shaped pocket sits low on the skirt. View A sets a plain flounce and appliqués on a print apron; View B, shown from the back, makes the flounce in a solid color; View C cuts apron and flounce from the same print and outlines them with contrasting appliqué and No. 5 bias binding piping. Six pieces, with McCall's Cut and Sew Guide; gingham, organdy, percale, sateen, and cotton prints are suggested.\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\u003eMid-1930s aprons were often as carefully styled as the dresses beneath them, with bias-cut curves, flounces, and appliqué borrowed from the day's fashions. This design shares its envelope style and price with McCall 246, two numbers away and copyrighted 1934, which places it in the same season of McCall's apron line. The envelope advises a strong contrast for the appliqué so it reads clearly across the room.\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 front shows the three views, one from the back to show the flounce rising over the shoulders, with a large detail of the armhole appliqué. A faint purple store stamp shows on the front, and the back has brown stains at the right edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"connections\" data-connection-type=\"default\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattern is part of our exhibit, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vintage4me2.com\/collections\/kitschy-kitchen-mccall-edition\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKitschy Kitchen -- McCall Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, a growing collection celebrating the whimsical, decorative side of kitchen textiles.
