Spreading the Joy!

Roberta (yet another generous customer) at Treadle Yard Goods in St. Paul, MN sent original patterns to me to avail to everyone. These are just three of the lot I received yesterday:


(I KNOW of whom everyone thinks when seeing the model at right on this one!)


A little coat dress style from 1953.



I LOVE the wide midriff with the sash over it! Also, it is very interesting that only one skirt gore piece is given as the same shape makes it all the way around.

Oh my gosh, I have to have that bottom Simplicity dress! How long do I have to wait? It's perfect for swing dancing!!

Thank you for letting me know your interest, Beth. I will get it together for release no later than this April.
Will be sure to post to the effect and I look forward to seeing that skirt's action once you sew it up!

Yay! If you release it in April, I'll have plenty of time to sew it for a competition in July! I really don't think I've seen a dress style more perfectly suited for me than this!!

I think the third pattern is amazing, too! Such neat details.

Love the 3/4 sleeve coat dress.
Maybe it's time I move from corsets to clothing for awhile. :-)
