Re: Vintage Sewing Books Make Great Modern Teachers

I'm so glad to see that others love sewing books too. Ive got quite a few.

The one I treasure most is a copy of the Simplicity Sewing Book 1954. The cover shows a mother in a red and white striped apron and a daughter about to cut out a pattern. The price is on the cover: 35 cents!

I also have some books and the entire newsletter series of The Silver Thimble by Jane Shaner. She's probably the one most responsible for my love of sewing tips. Still helpful and fun to read.
