My friend Sheila gave me some vintage Home Arts Needlecraft papers that were discovered in a chest at an estate sale.
Most of them are from around 1940 and all are enclosed in plastic and in excellent condition. The articles are fascinating -
even the advertisements! I plan to share some more as I go through them, but first check out this:
A complete quilt kit for $2.98!!!! To “defray the cost of packing and postage, they ask that you also in include 27 cents,
making it a total of $3.75. What?? That is amazing. You can’t even buy a stamp for 27 cents now, or a yard of fabric for 2.98!!
I am amazed at the condition of these newspaper type magazines a mere 78 years later! More to come!
