Some sewing tips and procedures are never outdated. I just came across a Simplicity Sewing book copyright 1958. I found it at the local senior center thrift store and paid a whopping 25 cents for it. I’ll be sharing some of the highlights from it since I’m between sewing projects worthy of sharing. I have been very busy with sewing lessons and alterations. It’s not as fun as creative sewing, but the extra money goes into my travel fund so I appreciate the steady work.

How do you know what will look the most flattering on you? Read through this little quiz for a perspective on the most attractive styles for your figure….remember this is from 1958!
