Taking a Break From Packing.....

I'm taking a break from packing.Packing is kind of a walk down memory lane as you go through things you haven't seen or paid any mind to in awhile.I was browsing through one of my magazines from 1940(I strongly suggest NOT doing this as it makes packing each box take about 10 times longer than it should).The magazine has a 6 page spread of McCall patterns.Thumbing through it I though I'd share them with my fellow vintage lovers and I think you'll agree with me that why yes I would like one of each please....oh wait that is right I can't really sew but yes one of each outfit already made pretty,pretty please.

  4. Those are fabulous! The one in the corner on the first pic is a little confusing, looks like the wind blew her skirt open!

  5. Picture Four- both business-like dresses from the war-time era are my kind of chic! :) I would love to have and make those patterns- still working on being able to sew with an unprinted pattern :)
