I'm always willing to go higher on larger patterns, but it feels like a major victory to get those larger patterns at a bargain.

Its one for the cause :D
Thanks ladies, I love the bias cut center panel, and the collar. The sizing is close to mine, sans the hip and waist a few inches, so I wont have to adjust this much at all. I might even take the top and make it into a blouse. I have been looking for something a bit different than a basic oxford.

SayCici,
I think this outfit (the orange one in the upper left) would be a *great* look for you. :)

Hello, i am looking for the instructions for this pattern,
am hoping someone here at the F/L has the same pattern complete
with the instructions, am more than happy to pay for shipping and the
cost of copying...........

I'll bet we have it at work (unless it is a mail-order we usually have it!) however, I don't know whether or not it has instructions. If I can find some for you to copy, would you be willing to copy the pattern for me in return?

Miss Smith, those are amazing!!
Are you the pattern fairy?? ;)
If you're resources are as good as they seem, you ought to stop by our Most Wanted Pattern thread. You might be able to answer a lot of prayers.:D

The Hollywood pattern is for my sister. These are all recent purchases and I have vowed to buy no more patterns till I make ten things and sell or give away some of my unwanted patterns. That is going to be really, really hard. I am working on the Buttericj 9381 right now. It will by my first dress in vintage fabric.
