I like how the princess seams on the bodice match the contours of the pockets

That's a cute pattern Bunny and I agree that cotton is a good starting fabric. It is very forgiving.

I got this pattern for my sister but I may grad it up to my size also. I love apron and wardrobe patterns and I think this is adorable.

And this for me. I love the bodice.

 

[Lauren]

Very cute!
I love your signature, deadpandiva. That quote is so true of some sewing projects I've made myself! lol "I've aquired quite a taste for a well made mistake."

DPD, loooove the second dress pattern. The bodice reminds me of a pattern that 'got away':

bunny chan, very cute!

I fell in love with that pattern when you posted it , which is partly why I got this one.

 

[deadpandiva]

Early 30's lounging pajamas. The listing said 1910-1920 but I don't think they are that old. I love them.

 

[Lauren]

Cool! I have that pattern, too! I made them up this summer. Love it!

Cool. I love the way it looks and can't wait to make one of my own.

 

[Lauren]

I just got this one

Those beach pyjamas are adorable. Can't wait to see them made up Deadpandiva. Did I see a way to upload photos of made garments on the vintage pattern wiki? That would be such a great resource.

Ha ha! Lauren, I was just thinking 'How 1938' on your pattern when I see it says 1939 written in pencil on it, so I was darned close! lol.

I have been extremely virtuous and not bought any patterns for ages.

 

[jetgirl]

I have a bunch of new patterns to post, but no time!

lol Yup, you know me and late 30s sportswear looks!

lol Yup, you know me and late 30s sportswear looks!

Admit it, it's the hats that get you - those funny little funnel-y perchy numbers, just like the pic on the pattern! lol.

 

[Lauren]

I know, it's true. I almost bought another pattern just because I liked her silly hat. lol Too bad the hats don't come with purchase!

 

[Miss Sis]

For me it's the shoes. Please can I have a pair of these shoes in Size 9? *points to pattern hopefully*

School loan stipend comes just in time for xmas!! Merry xmas to me!!

From Lauren. I love the cleaning lady look! Let me know if payment went through ok -- I cancelled my credit card, but I still had money in my PayPal.

I have this one -- it's my all time favorite house dress, although I tweaked it a bit to have a set-in buttoned waistband instead of a belt. And yes, I accessorize it with my mop and bucket.

 

[Miss 1929]

Early 30's lounging pajamas. The listing said 1910-1920 but I don't think they are that old. I love them.

Oh how lovely!

I find that the sellers almost always mistake the patent dates of the pattern company's method for the date of the pattern, which explains the teens on this one. It is so 1930!

And I want it so very badly - but bigger.

I need it a size smaller but beggers cant be choosers I guess. I'd rather great up a size than down one. I looks like it should be pretty simple to make as there are only a few pattern pieces.

Here is my latest and probably the last for a while.

I feel the same way. I also love late 1930's sportswear and that pattern is lovley.
