    That is so completely lovely, Smuterella! I have that book, but not sure my skills are quite up to the challenges within just yet.

    Foofoogal - I'm with Lauren and Allabout Eve. You should be able to date the union mark with a bit of googling. I have a few garments with similar marks and figured out they were mid to late 50s based on variations in the mark. If only I'd saved the link!

    I'm part way through the Decades of Style pattern. I didn't make a muslin (doh!) and have found the bodice to be absolutely enormous and the waist a tad tight. I really hope you have better luck!

    Drappa - it's been a while since I've used jersey, but ditto what Lauren said - a ball point needle will help.

    Lauren that pattern is fantastic! I love the sharp, triangular details on some 30s and early 40s garments.

    It was a bargain and I couldn't resist the bow pockets. She looks very nonchalant smoking her cigarette!

    Lovely patterns DPD! I've just got a nice, versatile Hollywood blouse pattern - I'm trying to stock up on seperates for winter. The back neck facing is missing, but it shouldn't be hard to draft one up.
