Jester apron, 1965

 
I don't know how many of these 20 cent booklets Good Housekeeping published, but this one certainly is fun. It features this apron, a peasant apron, a child's pinafore, and a Japanese apron (more like a smock-type dress). Layout and pattern piece dimensions are laid out, as well as step by step instructions for construction. This one is rather oddly festive, as is her expression. With a look like that, that spoon in her hand could be a magic wand, or more likely, a dominatrix whip.


 
Here's the Japanese apron. Her poses are so creepy
mannequin-esque.
