Someone posted this book, The Mary Frances Sewing Book, somewhere on social media and I was able to track down a copy form a Half Price Book Store in TX....this is when you have to love the internet!!! It is about adventures among the Thimble People...I can't wait to read it... stories about sewing birds, fairies and even some patterns included.....lots of fun illustrations!!! This is a reprint from 1997, published by Lacis, and I love this little quote "This book is reprinted with the hope of capturing the imagination of every little girl who discovers the pleasures and rewards of working with fabric and thread". PERFECT!!! There is also a dedication in the front by the author, Jane Eayre Fryer, that says "For all girls who love to make pretty things".
Thanks for stopping by and your "twisted threads" of friendship!
