With simple, step-by-step instructions and useful diagrams, this volume is ideal for the novice dressmaker and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Costume”, “textiles”, “Textile Manufacture”, “Textile Economics”, “Dressmaking”, “General Suggestions and Instructions”, “Drafting and Pattern-Making”, “The Use of Commercial Patterns”, “Pattern-Designing and Draping”, “Skirts”, and “Finishing and Embroidery”.
