Excerpt from Needles and Brushes, and How to Use Them: A Manual of Fancy Work I like the old-fashioned term fancy-work, because it is such a true word. To many a woman whose life is, of necessity, spent chiefly in the pur suit of very prosaic and wearing duties, the paint ing of a tile, the working or knitting of a bit of lace, the copying of a flower in silk or worsted, is, indeed, fancy work. It is a little opening into the ideal world which does her untold good, and which serves to brighten and 'cheer long days of plain sewing, sweeping, dusting, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
