Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Thrift to Fantasy Home Textile Crafts of the 1930s-1950s By Rosemary McLeod. Publisher: HarperCollinsPublishers, Auckland, 2005, First Edition. Softback, tiny crease on corner otherwise near new with no inscriptions. In Thrift to Fantasy, Rosemary has used them to brilliant effect, creating a unique social and personal history of their makers - women and girls who dreamed about a life beyond the farm gate and worked those dreams into reality, using the simple materials they had to hand. From rag rugs to felt handbags, from patchwork quilts to sacking aprons, from knitted panties to topsy-turvy dolls, they provide a unique insight into womens art and creativity in a new country learning its own nature. Superbly illustrated with hundreds of examples from the 30s, 40s and 50s and designed by Sarah Maxey, this book is destined to become a classic. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK.
