The ones that got away

[deadpandiva]

Ooh! that jumper sportswear pattern! I've seen it a few times, and always thought it was cute. Bummer.
That blouse!! Saved a pic of that- that's AMAZING.
So sad, those are so nice.

It's the second time in a month that I have lost that jumper pattern. and that bluse pattern was one of those magazine patterns were all the pattern peicing are printed on one page and they overlape. It was also French.

I'm with Lauren on the Simplicity pattern, woah! I've never seen it before. The blouse has a zipper? So cuuuute.

That blouse is incredible! It reminds me of a few items in an old Vogue catalog in my mom's sewing room.

I was bidding on it and stopped at $20. I also love wrap dresses.

 

[deadpandiva]

I like wrap dresses buecause they seem easy to wear, fun and casual. I also love the novelty of them. I have had my eye in that particual pattern for a while.

Lady Day, is that a *backwards* walk-away dress??? I love it! So sorry about the miss!

deadpandiva - the jumper was adorable!

What these patterns do for my uniform love... I love anything that makes me look like a stewardess... That Red Cross pattern is just *love*

[Lady Day]

This is cute but I can live with out it.

I was sad about this one though because I have the perfect fabric for it. Red, white and blue plaid flannel.

 

[kamikat]

I'm trying to be good about buying patterns again, but I have a list of things I'm looking for and this one fit the bill. I was outbid at the last second.

Hi Kamikat,
I saw that pattern too. How much did it go for?

$17.25, which was only $0.25 more than my high bid.

Arrrgggghhhhhh!:rage:

 

[deadpandiva]

I don't think I am ever going to win a 30's collar pattern.

 

[SayCici]

I love 4 and... G?

 

[kamikat]

DPD, those are so cute it hurts! Did it go really high?

 

[Lauren]

Oh man... those are pretty remarkable.

 

[crazydaisy]

Not a dress maker myself. too useless for that, but I can feel your pain, kamikat and deadpandiva, those patterns are just gorgeous!
The day I'll own a 30's coat I'll throw a party. Same goes for a proper 30s blouse, and for that surely, the key is in the collar.

 

[deadpandiva]

DPD, those are so cute it hurts! Did it go really high?

no, it went for about 26.00. I got out bid by about a dollar. it's probably only the third or fourth collar pattern I have bid on. I guess I'll just keep trying.

I thought these were vintage maracas (shakers), and that you were going to make music!

Im starting to thing Ill never get a darning egg. :cry:

P.S. I LOVE the maracas boys in Night of the Iguana!
