Period cloting attitudes, period.
Retrogirl, that looks like an age appropriate outfit to me. It's not over the top like some jumpers and ruffles. I could totally see someone in my old family photos wearing this. Cute little pattern!- Lauren

It's a scary pattern addiction! Oh my... I probably will never sew all the things I want to, but it won't keep me from trying! lol I guess you choose your battles. I'll sew something in lieu of tidying house, much to my husband's dismay, then play "pick up the pieces" all in a rush and be...- Lauren

Fun! Love that little pattern Cici! The hats are two cute for words, 23Skidoo. And Casey, I adore the jacket pattern especially! I'm absolutely giddy about these two 30s patterns I bought today!! :D- Lauren

I only left negative feedback once. I dunno, I always end up feeling bad, though I know I probably shouldn't. But that person had other negative feedback, so I felt it only fair to alert the other sellers of a trend. You do have to leave feedback before you report a transaction if you're...- Lauren

This is totally true, too. Most of the time if they're new they're just confused which is why it's good to send multiple messages, and, like Foofoo said, offer to send a paypal invoice to their email. Some new buyers do pick that option for sure. But since you haven't heard a peep for two...- Lauren

Wow! Two weeks? Sounds like you have more tolerance than me! lol If you say within your shop policies that you expect payment within a certain amount of time and they haven't contacted you, I think you have every right to cancel the sale. Usually if I don't get payment within a day I sent a...- Lauren

Thanks! I was a bit confused because of the old policy of no ads at all and then being allowed to post about our Etsy stores. Glad I know now! I removed my previous post :)- Lauren

30s is my favorite for sure, but there's also elements of the 40s and the 50s that are quite fun, especially for summer!- Lauren

Show us what you've made!
Fabulous! I love the contrast and how you used covered buttons to accent. Lovely! Very nice shorts, LD! When my husband and I were dating I traced him off one of my mens boxer patterns and he made them up. I couldn't believe the amount of detail in them compared to modern boxers! He's asked...- Lauren

Sewing Lessons & FAQ
I'm looking for a fabric, but I'm not sure what it's called... I need two colors in solid of brown and tan in a wool- something preferably with a flat weave that I can use for a dress that will keep warm but still have a decent drape (not too stiff). Any ideas? I don't want gaberdine or...- Lauren
