Excerpt from Complete Sewing Instructions the Russell Way: The Newest, Simplest, and Most Perfect Method of Sewing Ever Offered Women
in the year 1904 Maude W.Russell established herself as a dressmaker and ladies tailor and continued this line of work until 1910. During these years of experience she realized how essential it was to the success of her work to have a system of pattern cutting that would simplify the methods of dressmaking then in use.
In 1910 she began to teach dressmaking and then realized more than ever the necessity of having some system of pattern cutting which all could readily understand. With the idea of solving this problem she continued her work and finally brought all of the knowledge and principles which she had acquired from her practical experience into use in perfecting the model of the Maude Russell System of Garment Cutting.
After much experimenting and careful tests, she perfected this wonderful, adjustable pattern cutting system. This she offered to the public believing that its use would prove a great blessing not only to those who are compelled to earn their livelihood by sewing but to every woman who desires to be well dressed at the least possible expenditure of time, trouble and money.
The Russell System has proved its worth by every practical test made by it and we are pleased to say that the approval which it has received from the public more than justifies the faith of the inventor in the superiority of her System over any other method of pattern cutting. And by placing this book of Complete Sewing Instructions before the people she knows that every woman can make her own clothes.
