Publisher Description: Vintage Notions Monthly continues to share the work of Mary Brooks Picken and the Woman's Institute which inspired my book Vintage Notions. Although the Institute was founded 100 years ago, the treasure trove of lessons and stories are still relevant today and offer a blueprint for living a contented life. In honor of the 100th Anniversary of the Institute, we are releasing the series Vintage Notions Monthly, which features a curated collection of Woman's Institute materials including lessons, essays & patterns. Every issue will include: Issue Three content: Take a Look Inside the Book to see how much you are going to love Issue Three Note from author, Amy Barickman: A pioneer in the sewing arts, Mary Brooks Picken was the author of almost 100 needlework, sewing, and textile books. Regarded as an authority on dress, design, and sewing, she founded the Woman's Institute of Domestic Arts and Sciences (1916-1932) in Scranton, PA. At one point the institute had an enrollment of 300,000 women across the world connected through its correspondence courses and publications. Why create a Vintage Notions Monthly? Inside the pages of this magazine you will find articles on sewing, cooking, decorating and even upcycling as well as testimonials from students. An original issue of the Inspiration newsletter is combined with articles I curate from Fashion Service, another popular Woman's Institute publication. I also add a "Magic Pattern" each month for those of you who are looking for quick and easy sewing projects In this inaugural issue several pages of promotional content are included to give you a window back in time to a student's perspective.
