    Thanks everyone. I am going to give the original a try then. I am glad I found it before the repro came out or I may have passed on it.

    I have both the original and the repro of this pattern and I haven't decided which version to make. I have compared the pattern pieces for both versions and they are very different.

    Beautiful patterns Miss Sis. I too love 1930's McCalls patterns. I've had great look with them and the finished products alsways look like the pattern illustations. I have that simplicity pattern but mine is in poor shape. I don't think I've purchased a pattern since my last post except for one...

    Late 50's cotton dress with faux bolero. The only draw back is that i have to untie the front in order to zip it. I can't always get the bow to look right.

    Not trying to be cute, but...

    I call eveyone younger than me cute or adorable. Often it can mean pretty or hot even but cute is the word I use. Most of the people I use that word for are also funny or irreverant which I find cute also.

    I know I could probably make one but I might have gone insane in the process. This was $36.00 with free shipping til the end of Feb from Candy Violet.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    I have these in red. The Brand is Chealsea Crew. This style is Alexa. I got it in a size 40 and it fits well. I wear 8 1/2 M in US sizes. I got the Marla (I think) in this brand in a 39 and they were too small. They are comforatble if you aren't standing for a long time. I wore mine to a concert...
