Sewing Book Find

I found this delightful sewing book at the second hand shop on Friday - it was published in 1969 by The Singer Company.


I love the introduction - "Did you know that surveys show boys are impressed by girls who can sew?"

I doubt if that is still true today .. but I am sure it would have been a helpful tip to get girls sewing!



It is full of basic tips, like :
Pressing
How to thread a needle
How to tie a knot
Sewing on buttons
How to sit at a sewing machine ...

Lovely little book - a great find
