Book Review: "Coat Making At Home" by Margaret Smith written by Caroline Amanda of Sewholic (Link)


I have an enduring love of vintage sewing manuals.  This blog seems a perfect place to link to reviews of them for future reference.  Caroline has written a lovely review and homage of a publication of the US Department of Agriculture Farmer's Bulletin.  I hope to run into other publications by that author and "Clothing Specialist."

If you haven't seen this review of a vintage sewing manual by Sewholic, here is the link:
