Catalog Sunday
Sorry for no CS last Sunday. I've been illustrating like a mad woman. You can find my current works here.
1930s (early) McCall embroidery booklet.
Sewing a bit and getting it done.
Happy February lovely people!
This weekend I actually decided to get some of the sewing things out of my head. I organized some of my patterns, I organized the printed NewVintageLady repros I have in stock, I worked on another Frankenstein suit for Workshop 77, and I finally, finally started on the draping of a dress I've had in my head for weeks!
