On the boards for Summer, 2013

The German 1929 pin-tucked coat with godets will be ready in multiple sizes the middle of this June:

The original was generously made available by customer Kacey!

Happy Spring, Everyone!

New Multi-Size Pattern

The 1934 Ensemble I posted about earlier is here in sizes 32 to 46 bust:
