On a recent visit to the thrift store, I ran across a couple boxes of old patterns. I came away with small box worth for just a couple dollars.
I like this dress, but what do you think about that collar?...
This one has some notes written on it dated 3/1972, though I'm sure a 25 cent pattern of this style must have been from a much earlier time...
This one appears to have been nesting material for a mouse family, I'm assuming by the tiny chew marks. It's a shame because the pattern doesn't seem to have been used. I'm optimistic that maybe I can salvage it...
Sixties maybe? I like the black and white version on the left with the little collar...
This pajama pattern was an Ebay purchase...
I thought these would be fun to make since I would really like some new summer pajamas ~ if I can get to it before summer is over.If you have any interest in vintage patterns, here are some sites I found:
Patterns from the Past
Acme Notions Vintage Patterns
Lanetz Living
The eVintage Society
Out of the Ashes Collectibles
I promise to post pictures soon of some sewing projects I have actually finished :)
