This book takes up fully, but with careful balance, every phase of
home-making: location, structure, plan, sanitation, heating, lighting,
decorating, and furnishing. The second part is devoted to textiles,
sewing, and dressmaking. Sewing, drafting, designing, fitting, and cutting
are treated in considerable detail as is also the making of the personal
budget for clothing.
The authors hold that harmony will be the keynote of the home in
proportion as the makers of the home regard the plan, the sanitation, the
decoration of the house itself, and as they exercise economy and wisdom in
the provision of clothing.
