New Pattern and Progress

First off, Id like to give a huge thanks to all the patrons of my etsy store. I sincerely appreciate the business!
On that note, Id like to announce my newest repro pattern. An apron!


I great repro apron sized for 40 to 42 bust. This WWII apron has great detailing and limitless possibilities!

Ive made progress in some of the projects I have coming up. I picked out my fabrics for my depression era dress. Im trying not to spend any money, so I looked through my fabric stash to see what I had. Ive chosen a mint green linen, and for the yolk, some lovely flower fabric.


"Gee, that flower pattern looks amazing! Where did you get it from?" Well, Im glad you asked. Its a bit outside the era, but its from the mid 40's. Its an amazing cotton, and Ive been wanting to use it in something for a while. I think this might do the trick. Now I have to choose buttons, oh joy.

The cloche Im going to do is going to be a modified version of the one I created here and here. Im going to extend the brim a bit and make it sit more like a bonnet. Ive chosen a light eggshell linen with blue linen accents.


My last fabric selection is for the great scalloped sleeved mail order I posted a bit back.

Ive had this fabric in mind for this pattern for a while, and I do hope I have enough to make it floor length. I think I can manage. Its sheer and Ive never done a see through dress before, so Im excited to see how it will turn out.
