Description: The Art of Sewing 15 volumes of 14 different types of sewing by Time Life Books. Be amazed at the timeliness of the designs and techniques of 50 years ago and how you see them again today. If you have ever wanted the perfect dress, or scarf, or a knitted or crocheted item, this is the set that will inspire you. The volumes also cover small repairs, such as hemming, or a new button. This is a beautiful set of Time Life Books, each cover is a different fabric reflecting the contents of the volume. The titles are Basic Tailoring (tweed look fabric), Making Home Furnishings (patterned heavy cotton) Delicate Wear (silk), The Classic Techniques (2 copies)(mod print canvas), The Sporting Scene (bound upside down in orange corduroy), The Personal Touch (peau de soie), Boutique Attire (satin watercolor), Traditional Favorites (small pattern cotton), Exotic Styling (dramatic cotton pattern), Separates That Travel (Marbled cotton), The Custom Look (flowered satin), Restyling Your Wardrobe (mod design linen), Novel Materials ("snakeskin" pattern leather look), Shortcuts to Elegance (striped heavy cotton). The covers feature gold lettering down the bound side of the book and some areas of the gold are darkened as can be seen in the photos. Most of these books have never been opened so the spines are not bent or cracked. An occasional small mark on a corner can be seen, but not obtrusive. These books have been well cared for.
