How awesome. I love vintage patterns or even vintage pattern images to inspire my sewing. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are so elegant and ladylike. I just know that if I wore the pattern 3611 with the bow I would FEEL more elegant. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI know! But I was noticing that slim or full skirted the common thing is that tiny waist. Really smooth and I'm afraid that even with serious underwear I could never wear these, but I can dream. :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love the pattern for 3573. Pretty polka dots!
ReplyDeletethat McCall's 3611 (pink sheath): My mom made that dress style in 1956 with a black linen slender skirt and red bandana print empire bodice. It was adorable!
