Présentation de l'éditeur
Now that many of our busy working people have better regulations as regards the hours of the day's work, there is great need to provide occupation for the day's leisure; and needlework, as a leisure craft, is one of the most refreshing and pleasant and profitable sources of entertainment - provided always, that those who undertake it realise that, with right thought and consideration on the part of every worker, each should become, as it were, a law unto herself, so that she should realise also that she need, under no circumstance, be the slave of old traditions, if she can give fitting reasons for making a change which is to the purpose of her work.
To be in a healthy and living state, our art should be constantly changing its fashion; if it stands still, it is retrograde, and for some few generations we may say this of British embroidery. What changes it has undergone are due almost entirely to the commercial enterprise of manufacturers of printed patterns - usually foreign ones.
