I stumbled across this site and thought it might be of interest. If you go to the main site there are tons of How To's on sewing items. http://www.vintagesewing.info/1950s/50-hmg/hmg-03.html 
If you click on the picture to the right in the article you'll get a larger version that shows you how to lay out the gloves on a hide.

Well, that's pretty nifty. What I like about that site (if you go to the main index page) is that you can find a lot of old pre-sewing machine books.
ReplyDeleteI'd really like to find the time to sit and learn how to hand sew. Obviously, it's possible. Perhaps I just need to print out the pages now and recognize that after TSHTF, I'll have plenty of time for stuff like that during the winters!
