[Sickofitcindy]

Hi ladies,
I'm a newbie here.I've been reading thru the forum and getting caught up.
Whew!Lots to see here.
I feel so bad,I had 2 HUGE boxes of these vintage patterns and I gave them up.I had so many,I knew I couldn't have made them all.
I could kick myself now.

​

Hi Starry Well hopefully they went to a good home at least.

I've been looking for these 3 for a very long time:
McCalls 8340, 8356, and 8348

They are all suits or dress/jacket ensembles by Givenchy, designed in 1966.

Size does not matter!

I have been trying to find this pattern FOREVER! I bid on one once but someone else won it. What size do you have it in?

Wish List for men

Personally I'm waiting for the multi-sized pattern from EvaDress of the men's 1930's jacket. Eee-yow! That will look killer.

Pattern or dress? I've looked for the pattern, which is what I want, but can't see it. Do you have a link?

I need a 36 bust. Vintage size 16 and 18 are what I look for.

This dress looks a lot like Butterick 6582.

Maybe you can mix the top of the wiggle dress with the bottom of the pouffy dress.

This finally showed up. A month late but I am so pleased.

Vogue menswear 2367

It's not a vintage pattern but it is a redraft so I guess it counts. I have the whole pattern except for the under and upper collar pieces. I can/have redrafted but would love the real ones. Even a photocopy or tracing. I found it on ebay but don't want to pay $40 for two pieces.

 

[fuzzylizzie]

I have pictures and can post them later, I did just find one of these on eBay, 8348, so I can cross it off my list! Thanks, Lizzie

Question...

Does anyone have a pattern for a smock apron.....the kind Aunt May in the Spiderman movies wears around the kitchen? I've tried searching the lounge, ebay and such but the closest I could find was at the Vermont Country Store ( http://www.vermontcountrystore.com/...:100:1030:10340:101080/I/f09260?evar3=BROWSE). I'm not fussy for the colour.

If anyone knows off hand wear to get a pattern for this I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.

I saw this in the new catalog I got this weekend- I don't know if it's vintage enough, but cute:

That's pretty close to what I'm looking for but too far out of the price range I'd want to pay for it.

Thanks anyway

Does anyone have a one piece bathing suit pattern? I have a two piece bathing suit pattern but I need a one peice suit. If anyone has one I can trace that would be great!

[PS]

I am looking for some pattern ideas. I want to make a maxi dress. I know it isn't a vintage item exactly, but I will need one this summer and this is the only community of sewers i know.

How about this one?

I am not sure what you are looking for but this one sprang to my mind. And it is free ...

Try one of the main 4 pattern companies' sites: Butterick, McCall, Vogue, and Simplicity. Maxi dresses are supposed to be back in style, so they'd probably have patterns out (or will, once the Spring pattern collections come out).

If you want the real thing from the '70s, try Ebay or Etsy.
