The Better Homes and Gardens Sewing Book, Better Homes and Gardens, 1970 — Ring Binder Edition

Who wrote it: The Better Homes and Gardens Sewing Book was compiled by the editors of Better Homes and Gardens and published by Meredith Corporation in 1970, a second edition of their well-known sewing reference, issued in the brand's signature three-ring binder format.

What it's about: Eighteen chapters take the home sewer from basic equipment and pattern fitting through tailoring a suit, sewing for children, and finishing touches like curtains and slipcovers, all aimed at giving handmade clothes a custom-made look. I

Special features: Rather than a standard bound book, this one lives in a three-ring binder with color tabbed dividers for each section, letting the original owner flip straight to alterations or tailoring instead of hunting through an index.

Condition: The covers show scattered foxing spots and the divider tabs have some edge wear, but the interior pages are clean and the rings are almost all intact. Please review all photos carefully, and email me with any questions.
