August, 1950:  Dutch Fantasy Apron

Fad of the Month Club August 1950 Dutch Fantasy

A matching kit to make an apron for a little girl was also available:  Dutch Fantasy, Jr.

The kit came with white organdy and a piece of fabric printed with Dutch-themed images:

The images were to be cut away from all of the blue background.  The instructions call for sewing each image to the back of the apron fabric, so that the organdy covers it and gives it a muted or frosted look.

The letter from Nancy Lee suggests making Dutch Fantasy a "Spring-a-Ring" apron, by ordering the plastic rings that were used in the Spring-a-Ring Apron kit.
