Singer Sewing Machine Attachments from 1906

This little booklet is the "Instructions for Using The Singer Manufacturing Co's Attachments  - Style No. II for No. 27 Machine" and it was reissued in Oct. 17, 1906. The engravings are beautiful! 
The attachment case would have been wood and rolled into a square, with everything fitting in just so.

A Dainty Lingerie Blouse - 1906

I can never figure out how they managed that look. Corsets I understand, but what made that pouter pigeon mono-bust? Stuffing?
However, "The present blouse is as fine and elaborate as human fingers can fashion".

A Small Nightdress from 1906.

All that work, for a nightgown. But what a lovely thing. It will "give much more satisfaction than the gown bought ready made."
