Thank you for viewing!! Please take a look at my other vintage sewing patterns.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I check all patterns for all their correct pieces and most I sell are complete. I may sell a pattern missing a piece such as a neck facing, belt, bow or pocket - pieces that are easy to replace. I will always mention is the listing if there is a missing piece.

All patterns will include their instruction sheet unless otherwise mentioned in the description.

Most patterns will be used - you will find pin holes in the pattern pieces, and you may find some small tears, taped repairs, pinned alterations or writing.

Vintage patterns can be printed or non-printed (I will say whether a pattern is printed or not in the description). All modern patterns are printed with their pattern piece names and/or numbers, the pattern’s make and number, the cutting and stitching lines and sewing symbols such as straight grains, notches and dots etc. But some vintage patterns can be unprinted. Unprinted patterns have holes perforated/punched into the paper pattern piece for the sewing symbols and pattern numbers. If you are a beginner you may find a printed pattern easier to start with.

Another difference between modern and vintage patterns is that modern patterns have lots of their pieces printed together on a very large sheet of tissue paper, whereas vintage patterns pieces are mostly printed separately (with the occasional exception of small pieces such as facings).

You may find pencil notations that I have made on the back of the pattern. This is to let me know if a pattern is complete or not. I write as light as possible so you can erase it later.

My scanner or the flash of my camera may have bleached the colour of a pattern envelope a bit in the picture. If I say in my description that a pattern envelope is discoloured it may arrive looking a bit more yellowed you than expect. Please keep that in mind.
