I am not sure what you are looking for but this one sprang to my mind. And it is free ... :)
That pattern is retro not so much a copy of a 40's bathing suit. Here is a picture of what I am looking for:

I need something that can be made up in satin. This suit is probabely never going to see water. lol

Do you mean this one? It says "Quick to Make" on it (sorry, it's just a picture from the Vintage Pattern Wiki, not one for sale!):

Hold on there, LD! I was searching for hat patterns last night on eBay and I think I may have found one like that. I was looking for 40's hats, so I didn't put it on my watch list. I'll try to retrace my steps and get it for ya!

Thank you Lady Day! I've been kicking myself for forgetting to bid on one I found a few weeks ago, so I know that feelin' all too well. I'll keep mine peeled for you as well. :)

I need a 1920s wedding dress pattern (which apparently is the hardest pattern to find in the entire universe). There's on on evadress but I don't like it.

Anyone have these in a 16 that they can make copies for me? I'll make two for you in return and give you my super-secret photobucket pattern password so you can see what i have! Thanks!

I'm almost certain I have the second one!! LOL - if only we had known a couple weeks ago :D

But I'll check and if I have it in the right size, I'm more than happy to do another swap with you for it!

Amy, these are modern patterns in modern sizes. Are you sure you need a 16? I thought you were a vintage 18? (36" bust)

I have these patterns and find I need a modern size 10 otherwise they come out massive, even though by the measurements on the back I'm supposed to be a 14 or something. [huh]

Yes, I have several other Vintage Vogue patterns and I wear a size 16 like a glove. REAL vintage patterns I wear an 18.

I'll glady do another exchange, LM! Do you have it in 16 or another size? PM me and you can look at my patterns again if you remember the PW!

Thanks!

I have the 1939 pattern. I just won it. Some one moved it so I have to locate it. I am really slow with tracing but what I can do is let you know when I finished and you can continue to look as someone may be able to do it sooner than I.
