G98.119Description
Apron of greenish brown (possibly an inexpensive black dye), plain weave cotton like scrim. All hand stitched with large running stitches. Rectangular, one corner square, the other round. Selvage runs along bottom. Body gathered into narrow waistband which extends about 4” on right side and 9” on the left. A school project? Looks like the color would run or otherwise be a mess if it got wet.Collection
