Publisher's Note
First published in 1905, this landmark manual by the Butterick Publishing Company was the first modern American sewing book. At the turn of the century most middle-class women did their own sewing, and they relied on how-to books like this to replenish their wardrobes. This unabridged reprint of a now-rare volume provides clear and concise instructions for altering patterns, hand-sewing stitches, and treating shirt-blouses, skirts, wedding and evening gowns, coats, jackets, maternity wear, undergarments, children's clothing, and other apparel. A reliable guide to replicating authentic clothing styles, this volume offers today's costume historians and enthusiasts important guidelines on such long-lost arts as boning a bodice perfectly, creating skirt sweepers and bust enhancers, concealing hooks and eyes, anti other old-time techniques. An indispensable archive of information on vintage clothing, the book will be of immense value to anyone interested in fashion and costume history.
