HAND SEWING INSTRUCTIONS PLAIN SEWING MENDING OPENWORK
Many, on opening this document will be disposed to exclaim as they read the heading of this first section:
What is the use of describing all the old well-known stitches, when machines have so nearly superseded the slower process of handsewing?
To this our reply is that, of all kinds of needlework, plain sewing needs to be most thoroughly learned, as being the foundation of all.
Those who are able to employ others to work for them, should at least know how to distinguish good work from bad, and those who are in less fortunate circumstances, have to be taught how to work for themselves.
