Dressmaking with Little Betty
"This child-size sewing machine (still in working order) belonged to my sister who used it to make many outfits for her dolls. Yes, dolly outfits were available in the shops, but they were pretty expensive and not really in plentiful supply. You might be fortunate enough to be given one for your birthday or Christmas. Sindy hadn't yet been invented although she may have been on the horizon! "
