Summer!

                                         Beach Bra Halter 1940's Vintage Sewing Pattern.
Yes, I may be getting a head of myself, but I might as well get ready for summer early. I don't want to spend all my time indoors sewing. ;) I love that this is a sewing pattern. I don't get to sew very often, but when I do, I enjoy every second.
I will be posting pictures shortly after this project is finished.

My Next Project!

                                                      St. Moritz Coat, Skirt, & Hat.
This pattern is from 1934, and I just love everything about it. The color, buttons, hat, EVERYTHING. I don't think I'll have this project finished before Spring, but I will gladly test it out next winter. ;)
Once the project is finished, I will post some pictures on here.

Baa Baa Vintage Sheep!

Baa Baa Vintage Sheep! From the golden age of the 1930s-1950s, comes a collection of exclusive, authentic vintage knitting and crochet patterns. I can't wait to get started on this! Just the thought of being able to make this sheep for my son makes me happy. I'm very excited.
I will be posting pics of how it turns out.

1920-40's Era.

I know this is my 1st post, & this has NOTHING to do with sewing, crocheting, or knitting, but I must admitt, I think I have missed my Era. The movies, music, dancing, and fashion are so much better in the 1920-40's. I love the passion and romance during that time. I believe my favorite dancer/actor/singer during that era would have to be 'Fred Astaire'.
Here is a little taste of Fred Astaire, my favorite song, Puttin' on the Ritz.
