Object history | Young Australian woman Muriel McPhee used this sewing machine between 1916 and 1918 to make items in preparation for her wedding and subsequent married life, as well as some of Muriel's sewing equipment. Muriel was not officially engaged, but it is thought the man Muriel intended to marry died in France during the First World War. She never married, spending her life working on the family farm with her brother and maintaining her interest in sewing. Her trousseau, unused and carefully stored, was found after her death in the 1980s. The trousseau is a poignant reminder of the ripple effect of war, even at a great distance. It illustrates the emotional ties severed by the First World War and is an expression of one young Australian woman’s expectations of a marriage – expectations that were packed away when that marriage did not eventuate. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
