Goldwyn-the pillows are fabulous! Was that a vintage or new kit?
Lady-I wish I was brave to make pants for myself...I don't trust my sewing skills that much yet. Pants are so hard for me to fit into properly anyway, the way I am built. You look great!
And if I didn't know better, I would say that strawberry bag is vintage...I have sold old ones similar to that, and it looks so cool!
Here is something I made last week-I know most of you tend to stay in the 30s and 40s, and I love that era too, but I sure do love me my 1950s. The pattern is from 1960, and I just couldn't resist the fabric! I love going over the top a little, sometimes.
Here is my next project: 1941 pattern with 40s era rayon...I love the optional peplum and keyhole neck! The pieces are printed, so I've got that going for me. I'm a little nervous about this one because I have exactly enough fabric for it-no mistakes allowed! It looks fairly easy though. My goal is to wear it next weekend.
Oooh! I can't hardly wait to see that purple and white polka dot beauty. Good luck!Originally Posted by RedHotRidinHood

Let me make it first, then I'll see about doing that!

Well if you show up this weekend in that dress you'll definitely look better than me and we can't have that.

Thank you. It was a vintage kit from the 50's.
I made some day dresses!
Also I made my first hat from a pattern from the pattern swap!
Great 40s design. The middle one on the right.
Yay pattern swap! The hat turned out pretty well. Its a black felt that was a bit too thick for what the pattern required, but I like it bunches. I cant show you a pic of me in it yet cause I plan on wearing to at the dinner this Sat.Now I need to finish my dress....
