This weeks Vintage Friday was a gift from my friend Jen. She found these dress patterns at an estate sale last weekend. I have not seen any of these since the 60's. My grandma would buy them at Zayre's and sew them up for me. Sometimes she would add trims, but most of the time I was in such a hurry to get them that she just did the basic sewing. If this panel was larger I could make a bag from it. I think the only thing to do is make the dresses. If you have any ideas let me know.
I stitched this piece from The Sampler Girl as a model for my local shop. It is simply finished as a pillow. I would like to make another one in a smaller count and make it into a pincushion.
Last weekend I went to a Antique Mall and found these patterns. I love them! I think I am going to try to alter them to fit me.
I love the look of these pj's. I hope I can find fabric just like the pink in the pattern.
This is so feminine!
I have been working on several needlebooks and pinkeeps. I still have finishing to do but I wanted to post my very first needlebook. It is a Blackbird Design of course.
