ART OF HAT MAKING - RARE ILLUSTRATED INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Â
This is a very nice document originating from the early 1920's that describes how to make your own hats.
Many types of custom sized and designed hats are detailed with both mens and womens styles discussed.
This digitally reproduced document is a great way to start in hat designing.
A Quote From The Original Author:
"HAT-MAKING is an art which may be acquired by any one possessing patience and ordinary ability. To make a hat for the trade is not as difficult as to make one for an individual; neither is it so high a phase of art."

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What is the use of describing all the old well-known stitches, when machines have so nearly superseded the slower process of handsewing?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.
