So far I have steered away from vintage patterns not because I don't like them but because I'm a bit scared to attempt making them. I still feel I need to build my dressmaking and fitting skills before I tackle an original vintage. However I have taken the first step towards sewing a vintage pattern and that is buying some. These were all found in a recent rummage through local antique and charity shops.
Without further ado here they are:
I googled Weldons sewing patterns as I wanted to find out more about these but found nothing. Are you familiar with Weldons? It looks like a 40s pattern but I can't be sure.
Style Patterns was another that I googled and found nothing. This also looks like 40s to me.
Next a mix of Vogue, Butterick and McCall for women and children. No idea what year again. Any ideas?
I also bought some 70s patterns. I like the dress in the middle below and the following pattern came as a bonus.
Finally a Simplicity skirt pattern from 60s, 70s?
Let me know what you think of my purchases and if you know anything about these or know where I could find more information about them please let me know.
