Vintage Patterns

My friend Amanda surprised me this year with a gift of Vintage Patterns.
They currently sit in a few boxes, and sometimes I go into the box and look through them, so I thought I would share some of what makes me happy. In the photo above, I love the little girl’s hair. Also, look at how short the dress is. Simplicity Girls Dress 1968.

Gathered Skirt, once again super short. Love the hair, and just love the fancy shoes with simple dressy socks. Simplicity 1970
Seriously love the bell sleeve. Cannot get enough. Simplicity 1969

Another Bell sleeve, this time in a lace fabric. Also a High Waist. Very flattering. Mccall 1969

A line dress, Lace edging and trim. Just love the collar placket. Simplicity 1968

I have always been a fan of tailoring. Nothing looks better and more professional, and no matter what your style, there is always a place for it. These looks are timeless. And beautiful. Mccalls 1964.

Off the shoulder ruffle dress, nothing could be more comfortable. I would do this in a color rather then white. Vogue. Year Unknown.

Vintage Maternity patterns! Cutest thing ever! Simplicity 1968

Lined Ruffle Neck A Line dress. So Elegant. The Black is my favorite. Simplicity 1964

Want this. Mccalls, Year Unknown.
