From a rare original period source pattern from 1919, this pattern is for the World War One era canteen uniform of the National League of Womans Service. This pattern can also be used as an “apron” or overdress for civilian use. This pattern includes both short sleeve and long sleeve options,and a belt, a cap, and an armband. This pattern includes both original period sewing instructions and supplementary step-by-step photo instructions. Cutting charts for modern fabric widths, research materials from period sources, and historical notes are also included. This pattern uses period sewing techniques that may be unfamiliar. We rate this pattern as advanced difficulty.
