Saturday Image Bonus 154





Today I am continuing to post your requests.  Lots of you asked for sewing related images.  Here are a bunch from two sewing instructional pamplets from 1920 from the Woman's Institute of Domestic Arts & Sciences.
 As always feel free to use any of the images on my website in your artwork but please do not post or sell the original image on the web in a group or collection or alone. If you use one in a project and post it to your site please link it back to here or leave a comment in the comments section of the image on this site so we can all enjoy. I love to see what you create. Please be sure to leave a comment if you stop by. It inspires me to post more.

  1. These are all brilliant, but I am curious about the one marked "figure 4". Can you tell me more about what this is?

  2. I think the 'pin cushion' may be an emery bag for sharpening needles in...
    I actually own a pair of buttonhole scissors... now that makes me feel old - they were my (late) mothers.
    Love these images, thanks Cora.

  12. I just saw a Dress Form like the one in the first image at an Antique Mall..., alas, it was not for sale and was one of their props to display pieces.
