NEEDLECRAFT will supply you at moderate cost with transfer-patterns, perforated patterns, or stamped goods for every piece of embroidery shown. Also many working charts for Crochet and Cross-Stitch Designs.
NEEDLECRAFT will show you the latest productions in fashions and will furnish you with the best perfect-fitting, seam-allowing patterns. From these patterns it is easy to make garments for yourself that will look like the pictures.
NEEDLECRAFT gives up-to-date ideas for decorating your home and tells you how to do it at the lowest cost. An interesting and instructive cooking-article appears each month. In short, NEEDLECRAFT is a magazine that every woman wants and needs, and is one of the most practical home-dressmaking and fancy-work magazines published.
NEEDLECRAFT is printed on large presses made expressly for it and uses the best of new type for each issue. The paper stock has a high finish in order to bring out clearly all the details of the fashion and fancy-work illustrations. The beautifully colored covers are of exclusive design—a very artistic border with the center panel showing a new piece of needlework each month. Like NEEDLECRAFT itself, the covers are different and practical.
A sample copy will be sent you free and postpaid. Just write your name and address on a postcard and you will receive a copy by return mail; or, better still, send us 35 cents and receive the next twelve issues. You are sure to find those very patterns and designs that you have been looking for. If you are not more than pleased with NEEDLECRAFT after reading the first number, tell us so and we will cancel your subscription and return your money.
