Vintage Sewing

Sorting through my sewing books recently I found 2 vintage 1950 "Women's Weekly"
magazines I bought from an op shop last year ( they were in a basket of old knitting patterns!).
I love this advertisement for a motor for a singer sewing machine

(and yes reading an old 1950 magazine is much more interesting than watching the football!)

  1. That's a great ad! But I still like using my treadle machine from time to time.

  2. Fabulous! I love the advertising in old sewing books - it gives you such an interesting glimpse into the feel of the era.
