Vintage Sewing Treasures…

…from Grandma.

My favorite is this wooden needle case. (Is that what it’s called?)

New Pants

I finally finished hemming and can wear these burgundy wide-leg, high-waisted pants. The pattern was originally my Mom’s from the seventies, it has her signature doodles on the envelope. The fabric is a secondhand polyester, the same used to make the Camille Skirt.

The Lisa Dress

The Lisa Dress is officially for sale in my shop. (Finally, it’s only been in my closet for over a year now…)
It’s the Classic Little Black Dress, about a size 0-2 and made from a vintage 1969 pattern.
