09/21/2004: "New and Vintage Patterns"

lots of sewing this weekend. i made a skirt from a current simplicity pattern (left) and a jacket from a 1977 simplicity pattern that i got at the textile center garage sale back in april. i grabbed some of these "vintage" patterns in my size and i thought it would be fun to make one of them. my skirt is in two kids of denim and the jacket is dark olive green corduroy. i will post pictures as soon as the camera batteries charge two set of batteries and all dead.

I just pitched some "vintage" patterns, but they fit you when you were 3 and all the pieces weren't there.

yeah, those kind of patterns i don't need. this one was great. someone had started to cut it, but all the pieces were there. i am definitely going to paw through the boxes for more at the garage sale this year.
