An authentic, facsimile reproduction of the 1991 classic.
SIMPLE SEWING INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITTLE GIRLS OR ANYONE NEW TO SEWING, WITH ILLUSTRATIONS.

From the author’s preface: “As the making of the small clothes shows how the larger ones are put together, the child that has made a complete outfit for a doll will have, when she awakens to the delight of sewing for herself, definite ideas about how she wants her own. And after all, few things give a woman more satisfaction than the ability to sew.”
