Even though I've really only used one actual pattern to make a dress (and no, it's not completed yet...) I have a large collection of vintage patterns through giveaways, sales, and family members. I'm going to try to give away a few each week for the next few weeks, though the time may vary slightly.
Some patterns are cuter than others, but that's usually the way it works, right? Also, let me know if there is any interest in vintage nightgowns because I seem to have acquired a lot.
So my first giveaway are 2 lovely patterns that I think are darling, but they look terrible on my body type, so I'm not even going to try. I'll be giving away the patterns separately so there will be two winners!
First up is Simplicity 7580, a cute sundress from 1968. It's a size 12. Bust 34, waist 25.5, hip 36. The pattern has been cut, but whoever had it before took great care of it because it seems to be in great condition.

Pick me, Pick me! I'd love either pattern but prefer the Very Easy Vogue. I can be contacted at laurenelizabethjeffery@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteI don't usually dress "vintage," but I love things that are old, but could also look modern - like the Simplicity pattern. What a great idea for a giveaway!

I love styles from the 50's and mod styles from the 60's, but don't necessarily wear them. I think I would choose the Vogue because it's closer to my size; less grading ;) Thanks for the giveaway!
