Q&A–: Looking for a vintage 1920′s style apron pattern [free, preferably]?
Is there any sites that you can name that would have this? The aprons back then were almost like dresses, and not just held up with a halter strap and ties.

I’m not sure if this might be what you’re talking about, but the creater of this apron said she modified a pattern to create it.
I’m having trouble finding a site with free patterns right now. But they have many patterns at Jo-Ann Fabrics. Sometimes they have sales where certain brands of patterns will be only about a dollar or two.

Good Luck!

Lots of different styles but you may like something like this…. I work as a maid and wear a very similar apron to the Victorian apron . You may be able to contact lc’s for a pattern if you like this style? Good luck.

Q&A–: How do I go about changing my school’s dress code rules?
I’m aiming to alter the rules about facial piercing and unnatural hair coloring. They claim it’s best for “equality of students” and to keep kids from being distracted. In my opinion, if we want to be different, then we should be allowed to be. No matter what you wear, you’re never going to have an equal student body. Also, even if you did not have unique hair coloring, the student getting “distracted” would find another thing to be fascinated by. So how do I go about changing these? I was thinking an essay and a petition with at least 200 signatures (my school is new and does not have seniors yet) sent to the school board. What do you think? Oh, and if you can help me figure out what I can do to be different while under the dress code, hair-, piercing-, and clothing-wise.

Outer clothing which resembles lounge wear, pajamas, or underwear is prohibited.
Fads and styles in dress which differ extremely from conventionally accepted standards are prohibited.
Any clothing that is viewed as distracting because of extremes in style, fit, color, pattern, fabric, etc., shall not be permitted. Undergarments may not be exposed at any time.
Blouses/shirts should be constructed so that the top of the shoulder is covered and is fitted under the arms (no halter tops, tank tops, strapless tops, spaghetti straps, or bare-shouldered tops of any type will be allowed). Blouses/shirts which expose any portion of the waist, hips, or midriff are not allowed. Blouses/shirts which are not appropriate for school include those which are low-cut, see-through, backless, or tube tops.
Clothing which is cut, slashed or has holes, is prohibited.
In accordance with board policy governing student conduct with regard to bullying, weapons, gangs, and drugs: clothing shall be free of inflammatory, suggestive, racial, or other inappropriate writing, advertisement, or artwork. This includes offensive words and designs, violence (blood, death, weapons), sex, playboy symbols, hate groups, tobacco products, drugs, and alcohol.
No clothing or other article may be worn or displayed which may indicate membership in a gang at school or any school function.
Pants, skirts, and dresses must be knee-length or longer, and must have a hem.
Shirts must be tucked in.
Nylon wind suits that fit appropriately are permitted.
Mesh, nylon, or athletic shorts are not permitted in the classroom. These type shorts may be worn during P.E. classes only.
Shoes/sandals must be worn at all times. Cleated shoes are prohibited inside the building. House/bedroom slippers are not acceptable.
Male students may not wear earrings; female students may wear earrings. Neither male nor female students may wear ornaments (jewelry) which pierce the skin such as the nose, lips, tongue, eyelid, etc.
Students may not wear hats, caps, bandannas, sunglasses, combs, picks, etc., inside the building.
Hair must be well groomed. Only conventional hair coloring will be permitted. Extreme hairstyles and fads that would interfere with the learning process, cause a disruption of the educational environment, or be a health or safety hazard are prohibited.
Well-groomed mustaches are permitted; goatees and beards are prohibited.
Due to variances in physical design of schools, principal’s discretion will apply to wearing of outer garments, coats, and jackets. Students may wear coats/winter garments to school, but may be asked to store them in their lockers during the school day. Students are encouraged to bring lightweight jackets to wear in the building as changes in weather dictate.

unless its a private school you cant do much. sorry!

Answer by Katzenjammer
A petition is probably the best route, along with an essay. If possible, maybe get an interview or meeting with the person responsible for making those changes. You would need points and examples as to why what your going for is NOT harmful to learning to distracting for other students. This said, school boards are usually very strict and are hard to sway. Public schools especially. Most likely it won’t do anything, but you won’t know until you try, and this would be the best route.
