I used to read those books when I was little! I had a Swedish great-grandfather and a Swedish great-uncle who used to give them to me.

I used to read those books, and I was always fascinated with their clothes!

I read these books as a child too! I just bought my first dress form yesterday and am taking a refresher class on how to install zippers and then I'm off and ready to sew! I just found your blog and think it'll be a source of inspiration for me.
Thanks!
