I came across a great little booklet distributed by the Department of Agriculture in 1948, Making a Dress At Home by Margaret Smith. I want to share the last page with you because it is a nice and simple reminder about paying attention to details.
I found this book at UNT Digital Library, yet another great online resource.
I also found a few great giveaways on some of my favorite blogs:
2 Pattern Give Away at A Few Threads Loose.
70's Sewing Book Giveaway at Sunny Gal Studio.
Fabric Giveaway at Kestrel Finds and Makes.
... And, don't miss the $1.99 sale on OOP Butterick, Kwik Sew, McCall's and Vogue Patterns, which ends tomorrow.
