Vintage Needle Books
Aren't these great? Vintage needle books from the 40s and 50s, I think. I have no idea what I'm going to do with them, but I love the images. My small collection consists of these 5 books (one set above is a front/back). Here is a short article about a collector featured in Country Living with 150+ needle books. They are such cute pieces to use as decorating accents, for framing or for paper projects and can often be found for under $5.00 (ranging in price, of course, from $3-$100). If you're interested in finding some for yourself, check antique markets, Americana Resources, or the long list on ebay.

Why does reading your blog make me feel old... er... "vintage"? ;-)
LOVE it.
Such wonderful colors! Isn't it interesting that the first one & the last one seem to be the same, just updated? But updated a long time ago...you probably wouldn't see a circle of women so thrilled with a sewing needle in 21st century advertising.
I love these and actually happen to have one.
Thanks so much with this fantastic new web site. I’m very fired up to show it to anyone. It makes me so satisfied your vast understanding and wisdom have a new channel for trying into the world. Agen Sbobet
