Originally published in the 1910s by the Singer Sewing Machine Company, this book still stands today as an authoritative guide for the use of a traditional treadle sewing machine to create decorative embroidery.
Full of advanced machine embroidery and lacemaking techniques, this is NOT a beginners' guide, although the beginners may still enjoy the work as inspiration and motivation to practice and improve their skills.
