The Art of Smocking

I am lucky enough to own this little gem of a smocking book!

Circa 1925

I love that it says "A Collection of Beautiful and Useful Patterns".  
Beautiful and Useful!! My favorite kind!
It has some interesting information in it.  And smocking designs too.

I love her shoes as well as her dress.


I plan to share this little book with you!!

This is my first sharing.   See you soon with more!
