Women's Handiwork in Modern Homes is a book written by Constance Cary Harrison and first published in 1881. The book is a comprehensive guide to the domestic arts and crafts of the time, including sewing, embroidery, knitting, crocheting, lace-making, and other needlework. The author provides detailed instructions and patterns for a wide variety of projects, from simple household items like tablecloths and curtains to more complex garments like dresses and jackets. The book also includes tips on home decoration and design, as well as advice on managing household expenses and maintaining a comfortable and efficient home. Throughout the book, Harrison emphasizes the importance of women's contributions to the home and society, and encourages readers to take pride in their handiwork and creativity. Overall, Women's Handiwork in Modern Homes is a fascinating look at the domestic arts of the late 19th century, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in traditional crafts and homemaking.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
