I have recently learned of a good outlet here in the county for any of you who may have handwork that you would like tc sell. The person to whom 1 talked is especially interested in local crafts. If anyone is interested in this, please call the extension office for more information.

* * * * * * * * * * * * What about that skirt you're making - how long should it be?? Miss Margaret Groseclose, extension clothing speci alist, says that there’s no one correct answer. It depends - on current trends, style of dress, but most of all on you. You must consider your overall height and body build. Generally we say a heavier person looks better in a longer skirt, whereas a slim person can wear a shorter one. Take a good look at your self - knees particularly - if you don’t have pretty knees from the back ( and few of us do) you best lower your hemline. For this season you have a choice of skirt lengths as they range anywhere from mid-calf up. If buying a coat this year styles will feature mainly the mid-calf look. As Miss Groseclose sums up, 'Just remember to adjust your skirt lengths so that they are comfortable for you to wear, create a goodpropora tion for the total garment and a pleasing appearance.” For you who sew - details have been received about the Sew With Wool Contest - check elsewhere in the paper for these.
