Thanks DPD~
Thanks CiCi~

We have very similar tastes I see! Good to know in case one of us decides to sell any of these lovely patterns. :)
I've been seeing that Simplicity 2844 floating around lately in a few different sizes. I've also been eyeballing for that one. I love the unique stitching on the shorts! Bravo on your purchases ladies.

Here are two of my recent acquisitions, from 1940 and 1941, respectively. These are the oldest patterns I have yet to own! I've been admiring the culotte patterns that have been posted here recently, so it's quite lucky I stumbled onto the first one.

Very cute, Marla! I've been seeing those short jumpers in the first pattern a lot, too cute. And if that's a zipper at the neck I'm in love!

That is indeed a zipper, Cici! Quite an unusual detail, but really neat nevertheless. Now if I could only find a metal zipper of the right length, and one that matches my fabric at that...

P.S. I swear the culottes on your pattern and mine are identical!

I sold some patterns and got a few more. I have had my eye on this one for ages.

This pattern came with the teal rayon fabric. I am not sure it's enough for the dress but it'll make a pretty blouse.

Marla, I love the simplicity 3356. It seems to come up alot which is encouraging for me.

I have been wanting an early 30's pattern for a while (since I can't wear 20's). This was a great price. I think view D and D1 will be great for summer.

Lolly, I just got the bottom one in a different size! I hope we don't both show up to an event wearing the same dress :D

Lolly, I was watching the top one but heck to all, just couldnt justify it.

Ive wanted this pattern for a long time. I saw it listed at $40, then another time at $20, and this time at $15, and I just couldnt resist.

The listing said its 'factory fold' but I dont think it is. We will see.
