Workers and models at the Pacific Chenille Craft Co., 218-220 Henderson Road, Alexandria, Sydney, 1941

    What a fantastic slice of history. Excellent.

    Chenille = French for Caterpillar. I remember these growing up in the 60s when visiting old fashioned houses.
  • Fred J Carss said:
    Remember bedspreads made of it. Very soft.

Women sewing military uniforms in Brisbane

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    In the early 1940s a number of factories opened, staffed mainly by women. These included a munitions factory at Rocklea and 12 textile factories in Brisbane. At one textile factory in Roma Street an incredible 19,000 garments were produced each week by only 200 women. Their work was gruelling, poorly paid and it demanded long hours.
