  • Godey's for the Ladies

    From Godey's Ladies Magazine, this housewife may hang from your waist or from a chatelaine. The outside is entirely made of silk, and the inside is lined with wool. Wool needle flaps await the embroidery of your initials, and your scissors (not included) may be neatly tied behind.






    Stocked with
    • swatches of silk, wool, and cotton
    • original and new glass, bone, mother of pearl, and metal buttons
    • handsewn silk poke sack
    • proper thread wrapped on cloth – black and white cotton and five colors of silk
    • needles
    • reproduction postage stamps on 100% rag paper
    • penknife sharpened pencil
    • raw beeswax wrapped in linen
    • leather
    • tracts

    Please tell me the initials you would like embroidered. For some examples other handwork, please see the album here at http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/...php?albumid=25 There are two pages of pictures.

    It's the perfect size for carrying all your small, necessary items like a comb or currency, as well.

    Kathy,

    Keep producing products like this and I might as well just sign my paychecks over too you! Hope this one sells before I get paid again!
