Hey Ladies, Not sure if it's been mentioned here yet, or if anyone knows at all...but moms patterns . com has listed some AWESOME out of print repro patterns, quite a few in larger sizing as well! Just click on the "just arrived" button. Some really great patterns featured today, too bad I am...

I bought this glove pattern on ebay...I was going to buy an original 40's glove pattern from another seller, but their score was really low :( So I had to trust my instincts and get this modern glove pattern from a better seller. and I JUST bought this from herroom.com. Can't wait! I order...

Bopeep, that is the cutest thing I have seen in awhile...LOVE the matching :)

there aren't a lot of pictures/stills of Wilma pregnant, but I did find this episode clip. She is wearing what I think is a cute little maternity skirt and top...and she does look a little fuller in the face. I love it, she is a cutie! I also found a photo to compare the "expecting" look to...

Oh my goodness... Yes, I finally got my book in the mail! I found it on the 'bay for 2.99 It's a first edition print from 1963. I cannot believe I am actually going to try this...I'm nervous and excited, I have been wanting to make my own shoes since I was a teen. I hope the experiment is...

Thanks ladies! I fixed "the problem" and adjusted a few other things, and it's looking a lot better. I added a few more details, I am now working on the hem, and I'm going to start on the petticoat tomorrow. I'm excited to see the finished product as well!

"What business is it of anyone elses what shape I am or whether or not I procreate?" AMEN Sister! Also, I get frustrated when I hear the word "sterile" to describe a woman who cannot have children. It just sounds so harsh, as if she is a robot or something that is not "alive". Just because...

Thanks Zombiegirl...well I was extremely angry, and my boyfriend didn't think it was that big of a deal, guys don't really have to deal with the "pregnant" questions, so they don't know really what it feels like. :rolleyes: BF doesn't get along with his father because of his over-opinionated...

Wedding Dress is coming together, there are a few things I have to fix (but if you can't see them, I won't tell you what they are! LOL) I just have to put in the back zipper, sew the hem and steam it. OH! and I am also going to make a petticoat for it, so it's going to be huge and fluffy and...

You're not alone in your frustrations!! JUST the other day, my boyfriends' dad actually came up to me (in front of everyone, mind you...5 people in the room) and TOUCHED MY TUMMY!! and said "do we have a baby in there?" I was shocked at first, thought he was joking and I looked at my...

homes with 2 master bedrooms ^^ ooooh! sounds lovely! I had another bad night in the same bed with my honey. As soon as he got in bed, I swear the bed shrank to a twin size and I was tossing and turning trying to find a comfortable spot...he got annoyed with me and turned over on his side...

Love my space!! I think it's totally healthy to have your own room. Even if there is no bed in there, just a place that is all your own. When my boyfriend falls asleep, he falls asleep hard and fast, he snores soooo loud, moves around a lot which ends up shifting me to the edge of the bed...

Gosh, there must be something in the water, because I feel it too. I recently chopped my hair off because I didn't feel like messing with it anymore (and also felt like it wasn't very healthy from all the product and pin usage) So now I have a pixie cut that requires only a bit of hairspray...

my new projects hey all, haven't been around here in a long while! Loving the pattern finds!! Here are some of my buys from the last few weeks...getting started on the wedding/prom dress now (not for me :p !) All patterns are from 1960 - 1963...

In my honest opinion, it takes yeeeeaaaarrrrrsssss of looking at true vintage clothing and TONS of photographs and films from those eras. Also learning about what was happening in those times helps to understand WHY things were made/styled they way they were. SCOUR and MEMORIZE old fashion...
