Description:Hardback book in orange linen boards and dust jacket, on which the following description is given: "Accent on Sewing stems from the success of Accent on Accessories, which Dora Shackell wrote in the 1950's. Requests for this still come in, but the author felt - and her publishers agreed - that it had been left too far behind by the tide of fashion, and that a completely new book was called for. So here it is - an inspiring book of instructions, sketches and pattern diagrams for making your own shirts, skirts, summer and winter dresses, pants, beach clothes, knives, lingerie, fur accessories, and some deliciously romantic Victoriana for evening wear. Even a tie for the boy friend. Right up to the minute, it will stay so for a good while yet, because of Dora Shackell's remarkable grasp of the main trends that make fashion what it is. "The lively drawings and text point the way to many variations on the patterns actually given, and tips on fabric choice are particularly helpful."It is assumed that the reader has a basic knowledge of the essentials of plain sewing, and nothing more than this is called for to make successful use of the book."Contents include: To Sew or Buy; The Dress Knack; Window Shopping; Fabrics; Sewing Machines; Dress Stand; Your Pattern; Shirts and Blouses (Shirt, Sleeveless, Chiffon); Skirts (Straight, Gored, Hipster); Total Look (Stockings and Jumper Top, Pinafore Dress); Summer (Belted Shift, Yoked Shift, Full-skirted Dress); Window (Full-skirted Dress, Yoked Dress, Jerkin); Fur (Fur Fabric Skirt, Fur Vest, Fur Capelet, Fur Pillbox); Cape; Shall We Dance?
