THE LITTLE GIRL’S SEWING BOOK
EDITED BY FLORA KLICKMANN New York: Frederick A. Stokes Company, Publishers.

This book contains lessons in practically all the stitches used in plain needlework, as well as the more useful of the fancy stitches. Each article described and illustrated will be found to contain instructions for some definite branch of sewing; and though all the stitches required in making the article will not necessarily be illustrated in that chapter, they will appear in other chapters, and can easily be referred to, by aid of the comprehensive index.


If you are going to set to work to make some of the pretty articles described in this little book, the little work apron shown in the picture on this page is just the very thing you will need to put on while you are sewing.
It has two deep pockets and two small ones, and you will be able to put the silks and cottons necessary, for whatever it is you are making, into these, so that they will be ready as you want to use them.
THIS HAS FOUR POCKETS
You will find it is so handy, too, to have a pocket to slip your scissors into after cutting your thread. You know what a nasty way they have of slipping off your lap on to the floor. And then, when you pick them up, it is quite likely that you get a little dust on your hands, and this gets on to your pretty work and makes it look soiled.
Then, when your sewing time is ended for the day, how convenient it is to be able to fold your work away in your little work apron, so that it is kept well protected from any stray specks of dust, and will be quite ready for you when next you want it.
