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of this first section: What is the use of describing all the old well-known stitches, when machines have so nearly superseded the slower process of handsewing?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

LESSONS IN SEWING PATTERN CUTTING STITCHING & FINISHING

Let's take a step back in time to the year 1898. Imagine what the school classes were like.
One of the subjects likely to be taught in an elementary school setting was sewing. This is a beautiful document that originates from this time.
You will find inside this digital document, an entire curriculum for a sewing class.
Beginning with the first grade and beginning concepts all the way thru an eighth grade level.
It's full of instructions and illustrations for all parts of the work. A Real Treasure!

COARSE SEWING SIMPLE CHILDRENS PATTERNS & INSTRUCTIONS
Â
Fine sewing requires fine motor skills. Smaller children require practice and a much coarser way of sewing in order to develop the finer skills later in life.
This principle is the idea behind this document.
Working on cardboard, canvas, burlap and similar materials, children are taught the techniques of sewing in a way they can understand and accomplish easily.
This is a superb reference document for any parent, teacher or daycare provider that wishes to teach sewing.
It is easy to follow and has several patterns with complete materials lists and instructions. There are plenty of illustrations too so there is a visual backup to the information.
