Pattern swap starts here!!

[miss_smith]

I'm not looking to borrow any myself yet (I'm holding out until I see a 20's pattern or a 30's blouse in my size!) BUT I have more patterns than I will probably ever make (probably around 150 at the moment) and would love to see someone else make them up. I would be plenty happy to draw up a copy and then lend the copy to you
HERE is where you can find all my patterns I have so far uploaded.

Here are some samples:

I may be interested in swapping. Do you think someplace like kinkos copies would copy the patterns onto those large papers they have as long as there is no copyright on the pattern?

This was discussed earlier in the thread...one of the women on here is the supervisor or something of making sure her Kinko's doesn't break copyright law and she explained it somewhat.

Hi ladies,

Short story...

I was working in a fabric store a few years back. One day, a lady came in with a bag. She was asking if anyone would be interested in some old patterns her mother-in-law had given her. All of my co-workers pointed to me just as I waved my hands frantically. LOL Anyhow, there were about 65 patterns in the bag, ranging from the late '40s to the mid '60s. I've used a couple of them and have plans to make up a few more, but for the most part, they're just sitting in a box in my sewing room. I think it's time they got some love, so if you see something you like, please let me know and I would be happy to make a copy for you.

You lucky girl! I hope you've posted up photos of the ones you've made. What size is the last one? It is kind of scrunched so you can't tell.

 

[cailinbeag]

The pyjamas are a size 16. 34 bust. And no, I haven't had a chance to take pics to post yet, but it's on my list of things to do.

Lorena B- Mens patterns

Lorena B,

I'm pretty sure I have some men's pants patterns. Back in my freewheeling credit card spending days, I bought quite a few lots of patterns on Ebay. Unfortunately I don't really have much use for men's clothes as I'm quite sure I'll never get my sweetie into anything other than jeans and a t-shirt. I'm planning on doing some pattern organizing this weekend and I'll pull some out and take pics for you.

 

[kamikat]

I would love copies of these two!

I have these for swap, copy for a copy (not the original). I would be tracing on Swedish tracing paper and would expect the same quality paper. I'm interested in swapping for late 20s through 40s patterns. I'm really in search of a great housecoat/robe pattern, anything from evadress (30s-40s), high waist slacks, hat patterns and of course dresses and blouses are always desirable.
