Description

"Whimsies in the Sewing Room" Book
by Frances Graves
This fascinating book was written by a noted collector of sewing tools. She shares pieces from her extensive collection, some extremely rare and others relatively easy to find. She gives lots of history and dating information for the examples she shows. It is profusely illustrated with excellent color photos.
It's soft cover, 53 pages and measures 5 1/2" by 8 1/2". Published in the US in 1997 by Thimble Collectors International. This copy is in like new condition with tight, intact pages and no marks. It's nice because it shows items not seen in other needlework tool reference books.
