Description

This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 2 September, 1959."No task is too difficult for the small energetic band of workers of the Eventide sewing bee that have met weekly at the home of Mrs O. Walker, Featherston Street. Displayed are a wide range of children's and teenage frocks in most attractive styles. Busily engaged in the concluding touches for the monster stall days to be held for the next four Fridays are, from the left: Front, Misses A. Kerrison, E. Langdon and F. Pickett: back, Mrs W. S. Wilton, Miss C. Butement and Mrs O. Walker (convener)."
