    I don't usually like hats from the 60's but I love the veil and the bow pin.

    LD- that dress is beautiful and I love the fabric. That may be a 20's style I could actually wear. AuroraFisherman- That dress does have a 30's vibe. I love it. Jenniferose7- Great work. I love all of your creations and the romper photo is adorable. And lastly- Thanks for the compliments...

    I love the 1950's Woman's day patterns. They are so multifunctional and fun. I have one for a halter or blouse with button on skirt and apron and used to have a strapless jumper with button on haleter vest, jacket and skirt. I felt weird buying these but the top one has a 40's vibe.
