That's the cover of "Simple Modern Sewing". I'm in love with this book, with the natural fibres, like linen, cotton, and wool, with the neutral colours, with the classic prints, with the models, who are ordinary people.
Get a load of this skirt with a "bustle"--really, just gathers over the butt. I love it.
Some reviewers have criticized the sizing of the patterns, in which the largest is only a 41" bust. Since I'm a small woman, I'm not bothered at all. In fact, it's so refreshing to find things that work so well on the small figure. Sewing machine, here I come!
