    Make & Mend for Victory

    Thanks for the ideas ladies. My cooking habits have always been like that, mainly because we don't eat ready food. I get the ingredients and then use them for many recipes. I freeze the meat, which I divide in smaller portions before it goes in the freezer etc. So there is no waste there. I was...

    Letters, Anyone?

    Not anymore, but it was something my friends and I used to do for years and years during the summer months. Recieving a letter in the mail has always been one of my greatest joys. No you only have to expect bills, I'm afraid.

    Ladies you are wonderful! The green dress is beautiful, as the entire style Miss Tuppence. Rue, I love your outfit, but it's your hair I really want! I am going to the hair section to browse right now!

    What are you wearing today??

    I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. I miss mine terribly. Judging from you two, she must have been a stylish lady.

    Could these work for vintage?

    Could these work for vintage?

    This looks like a great pattern. I think that many 70s patterns feel 1940s. Maybe they were in fashion somehow.

    Could these work for vintage?

    Thank you! As soon as I have something ready, believe me, you girls will know! I am a beginner seamstress I am afraid, but very eager.

    Could these work for vintage?

    Yes, they are burda. I have them from the magazine though. That style of pants they called marlenehose. As in Marlene Dietrich! So they must have had a vintage feel in mind. It's NR. 104-102010-DL on their site. At least they don't have pleats-they make me look huge! I prefer darts.
