I have finally gotten around to scanning a small collection of vintage patterns given to me by someone with whom I used to work. It is a fun little collection, so I thought I’d share them here. Most of them are my size, so that’s extra exciting!

So many cute things! I hope you are able to use these in the vaguely near future. 🙂

Me too! But I’m sure you know how it is…I have a “to-sew” list a mile long! I might tackle that 1950s slip though, as I really should make the right underpinnings before going to town making 1950s bouffant dresses without anything to support them.

I stalk etsy and ebay for old patterns all the time! Trying to develop my own capsule vintage wardrobe bit by bit!

40s for daywear or workwear, 50s and early 60s for sleepwear and sundresses. What’s your favorite?

I find late 50s and early 60s dresses, blouses, skirts and shirts to be my favorite, with some mid-40s pieces too.
