Reader's note

Looking for unique niche vintage books? This decorative edition of Needlework Economies edited by Flora Klickmann would look lovely on the bookshelf! This is a book of mending and making with oddments and scraps written during or soon after the War. Klickmann notes in her preface: 'War is a hard, stern teacher, and its lessons are bitter in the learning; yet some of its teaching we badly needed - and not the least important of its many lessons is the one it inculcated on the criminality of waste. The woman who can utilise oddments and make things with her own hands is the woman who will be making money, as she will be supplying one of the most expensive items of modern times - personal labour'. With the cost of living increasing rapidly still today, this book is still as useful as ever!
