The exquisite photography features over 1,200 items, including needles, thimbles, chatelaines, sewing kits, scissors, rulers, darners, thread holders, sewing machines, and more. Historical information, material, date, country of origin, and a current collector value is given for each item. There's also a helpful glossary, bibliography, and index.
