Aunt Martha's Workbasket Magazine - November, 1936


The most recent Workbasket offering from the Antique Pattern Library.  If my calculations are correct, this one is from November, 1936.  Offered are projects in crochet, embroidery, tatting, and, well...cornhusks.  A pdf is available for free download.

Is she wearing dark underwear with a light-coloured blouse? Maybe that's just to show off the design - I hope.

Some of the projects are cringe-worthy; in one of them there is a hot-mitt set with "mammy," "Sambo" and a watermelon slice.

Who was it said "the past is a foreign country"?
