A friend of mine is getting married in May. I am so happy for her. Everything is coming together so well. She hunted for months for the right dress and finally found it. All that hunting made me think of all those brides-to-be who have visions of the dress they are looking for and can never find the right one leaving them to settle for what they can find.
Simplicity 9421 allows the dressmaker to design her own dress. Not so crazy and what a great idea. If you want a full skirt, do that. If you are looking for a close fitting skirt, that’s OK, too. Sleeves, ruffles, frills, sleek; it’s all up to the maker to decide, and all in one pattern. Nice. Comes in sizes 12-16, bust 34-38. Pattern is uncut and complete. Take a look.
The other pattern just listed melts my heart. From the 1970’s, Simplicity 7931 Peasant blouse. Was I a hippie? What do you think? Peasant blouses and long skirts, handmade, of course. This pattern has four variations and comes in size 14, bust 36. It’s been used but it is complete.
