Sewing help PDFs: Zippers, snaps, hooks, eyes, buttons, buttonholes, elastic, etc!

Exhalted Notions, 1971

From my apparently interminable supply, here is the ninth post of DOWNLOADABLE PDF pamphlets. I have gathered these from around the web - almost entirely from various American university cooperative extension programs or university archives of such. (If you are not familiar with extension programs, they are pretty cool. They date back to 1914 and are the precursor to community colleges.)

Please note that these are historic resources. They may refer to methods and items that are no longer sold or considered safe (home dry cleaning with gasoline, I'm looking at you). Do not follow such advice without exploring modern resources and using your best judgement. This batch I have one list, Fasteners and Elastics.

Enjoy!
