I tried to post this as a book for swapping but since it's only 44 pages with no ISBN and not a children's book it had to be taken down.  It is a craft instruction book self-published in 1981 by the Shop of Margaret Pierce regarding Heirloom Sewing.  She says to the reader:  This book provides a step-by-step approach to heirloom sewing, the very fine handsewing of laces and elegant fabrics which was done at the turn of the century.  Time-honored basic techniques are explained with words and pictures, as well as "special" information on such subjects as combining handsewing with smocking and "how-tos" for the more advanced seamstress."  It is in good vintage condition.  I have a photo of it but I can't find a way to post the picture of the cover here, but will do it if I figure it out. If anyone wants it just let me know and I will send it out for a credit.  Thanks!
