Here's the last of my latest buying spree. I think I'm done for a while

 

[SayCici]

Ooh I love the styling of the blue and red versions, the little jacket? Cute.

 

[zendy]

YAY!

 

[kamikat]

Very cute, Zendy!

I just counted the pieces and found out the 2 back pieces for the belted pink one are missing. That was the view I wanted hopefully the seller will be nice and gimme some sort of discount.

Zendy- that blouse pattern is lovley. Maybe someone here has the same pattern and can trce the missing peices or you can draft them.

I just won this. I have to get a little more toned before i make it.

I got this pattern from Lady Day. Any one have a suggest on what type of skirt or pants this would look good with?

 

[Lauren]

Ooh! Cute! I think capris would be adorable with the blouse!

For those who live in LA, I bought a 3 patterns at Playclothes in Burbank the other day. They were $9 each. They have a TONNE of 40s and 50s patterns there with some 30s ones as well (I bought 2 of them). So many to choose from. Go down and have a look.

Well don't be crushed because I have the exact same pattern. It's a size 12 however, but sleeves can't be that hard to grade. Just PM me and I'll send you a copy of the blouse sleeve.

You can always use a similar sleeve from another dress of the same size. the one below has a similar puff sleeve you could modify maybe.

I got the patterns I Mentioned earlier the other day. So far they have all been complete! Yay. Here are some of the rather interesting ones.

ANd this Advance is specifically a Plus Size pattern, as on the back, its sizes go from 42 bust to 52 bust. Cool!

Wow! I love the first and 4th one. The little jacket is lovely. I'd love to make that one.

I got this for my sister. I wish I could make it as a suprise but the last dress I made her came out way to big and she has tiny shoulders so I have to make a muslin first.
I am thinking of making it in black with a red yoke and red buttons. Red's her favorite color but she doesn't think she looks good in it so I think just a little red is good.

 

[deadpandiva]

I forgot to bid on this 1930's skirt pattern:

So I got this similar 1940's skirt pattern which I've had my eye on forever anyway.

 

[zendy]

DPD You always find the best styles!

I just picked this off Etsy. Yet another from my favorite pattern company!
I'm really excited about the back view.

 

[Claireg]

I may be able to help..

Here are my latest. I'm crushed that the Simplicity is missing the blouse sleeve.

Hi Kamikat
I have a 16 simplicity same era with almost identical sleeves...
Do you want me to send you a copy of the pattern piece???
If so PM me.
