Sewing - Easter "Coinettes," 1953


From Workbasket magazine, March 1953.  "Easter Bunny and Easter Chick are for a little girl or boy to wear on a lapel in the Easter parade.  Besides being bright and clever costume keynotes, the little felt pins will each securely hold a few coins, which makes them doubly useful."

Two pages with pattern and instructions on my Flickr account.

Ah, where to put your mad money or a dime for the phone. These are adorable!

Oh, the days when we all went to church with that nickel or quarter clutched in our grubby little hands.

These are so adorable. I believe I still have a kitten one someone made me when I was little.
