Book Description
Excerpt from The American System of Dressmaking The Science of Dressmaking and Ladies' Tailoring embraces a vast scope of knowledge, much of which because of the very nature of the relation which they sustain to the home and society, becomes, in a general way, the common property of all women. Beginning with the simplest forms, and gradually developing chapter by chapter, the more complicated phases of the profession, the author has studiously striven to classify and crystallize this general knowledge into a tangible working system. The success of her effort will depend largely upon the student's attitude toward the study and her desire to become proficient in the application of the principles outlined. This volume is intended to be at once a complete and comprehensive text book for the beginner, a handy guide for the seamstress in the home, and a ready reference for the graduate and professional dressmaker. The large printed drafts and tailor's square which accompany the lessons are essential to an intelligent application of the American System.
