A 1949 (c) 1943 Sewing Book called The Complete Book of Sewing printed by the Greystone Press of New York. It has over 750 explanatory pictures and over 2000 different items! I purchased this book from E-bay and it arrived yesterday. I had more fun browsing last night. It has some great quotes. (I'll share some with you later.) It speaks to "recycling" making a new dress out of tired curtains (remnents of Scarlett and the green drapes????) and saving trims, buttons, etc. for a stash that should be kept close at hand (remnants of the depression days?)
I think this one is a keeper!
