"Make and Model"

The sixth "Make and Model" contest sponsored by Simplicity Patterns was held at Adairs recently. From a Simplicity pattern and fabric obtained from Adairs the entrants made and modelled their own garments. Winner of this year's contest was Mrs Elizabeth Twigley, of 130 Wainui Road. Mrs Twigley received $50 and she will go down to the national finals in Invercargill.
