Re: Vintage Sewing Books Make Great Modern Teachers
I love old sewing books, and have quite a collection, including several editions of the Sewing Made Easy that I see in the picture. It's interesting to see how the pictures change with the editions!! LOL
posted: 2:48 am on April 21stMy oldest sewing book is from, if I remember correctly, 1923. Most of them are from the 40s and 50s, though. And one (title escapes me, and it's downstairs at the moment) has the most charming illustrations--I just HAD to have it!
A couple of books I inherited or was given; most have come from used book stores. And SOME of my "vintage" sewing books come from my own early years of sewing!! :-O
