Synopsis
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.
