Sewing instructions!!!!
Dear Mom
Cathy (owner of a cute lilac house and maker of beautiful quilts) sent this to me via an email.
Sewing advice form a Singer Sewing Manual - 1949
"Prepare yourself mentally for sewing. Think about what you are going to do.... Never approach sewing with a sigh or lackadaisically. Good results are difficult when indifference predominates. Never try to sew with a sink full of dirty dishes or beds unmade. When there are urgent housekeeping chores, do these first so your mind is free to enjoy your sewing......When you sew, make yourself as attractive as possible. Put on a clean dress. Keep a little bag full of French chalk near your sewing machine to dust your fingersat intervals. Have your hair in order, powder and lipstick put on... (If) you are constanly fearfull that a vistor will drop in or your husband will come home and you will not look neatly put together, you will not enjoy your sewing as you should......"
Hmmmmmm.....
