EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the 1910s with this advertisement for Stitchery, edited by the esteemed Flora Klickmann, as featured on the inside back cover of The Etiquette of To-Day, published by The Girls Own Paper in circa 1914. The image showcases an array of intricately stitched samplers, each one a testament to the artistic and creative spirit of women during this era. As the world was on the brink of the First World War (1914-1918), the domestic sphere remained a significant aspect of women's lives. Stitchery, with its comprehensive instructions and exquisite designs, provided an engaging and therapeutic pastime for women of all ages. This volume, which was highly recommended for every woman, young and old, offered a diverse range of patterns and techniques, ensuring that each stitcher could find something to suit her skill level and personal taste. The Etiquette of To-Day, under the expert guidance of Flora Klickmann, was a popular publication that catered to the interests and needs of women during this period. The Girls Own Paper, as a trusted source of advice and entertainment, was instrumental in promoting the Stitchery book to its wide readership. This advertisement not only highlights the importance of stitchery as a cherished hobby but also underscores the role of women's publications in shaping the cultural landscape of the early 20th century. As we delve deeper into the history of this era, we are reminded of the resilience, creativity, and resourcefulness of women, who, despite the challenges of war and societal expectations, continued to find joy and solace in the simple yet profound act of stitching.
