I'm all for this! Now I just have to figure out how to link back in a way that you can see it. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your patterns, a new shop to favourite!
ReplyDeleteMy personal favourite is http://www.etsy.com/listing/50435915/vintage-1970-cute-mod-scooter-skirt
I'd buy it but it's just that bit too small :( BOOO!!
Wow, your shop is great! please add me to your contest. I'm going back to add you to my "heart" list on Etsy
ReplyDeleteIt was really difficult to choose just one favorite from your selection - you have a lot of great patterns. I guess that if I had to choose one, it would be:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.etsy.com/listing/43729629/vintage-1970s-hippie-boho-dress-or-top-w
(Though I really like the 60' Mod Twiggy Dress and the Mod Sailor Dress too)
What a fab blog! Right up my alley... my fave eras are late 50's to early 70's so will definitely be visiting you often!
ReplyDeleteMy fave pattern in your shop is this one: http://www.etsy.com/listing/50904756/vintage-1960s-vogue-boho-empire-waist.
Love the sleeve variations (have hearted it too). Don't anybody buy it! Mine!!

ReplyDeleteHmm as a libra I find it very hard to choose between favourites. I narrowed it down to 2- this cute top would make a great maternity top (with a little extra length)
ReplyDeletehttp://www.etsy.com/listing/50781712/vintage-1970s-flared-boho-blouse-w-neck
and love the coat

Hey! It's really great to find someone who loves 1970s patterns as much as I do. I think they're severely underused, and I really love your taste. I'm definitely going to be looking out for some of the coats and separates in your post down there - beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite pattern was this one - http://www.etsy.com/listing/51097358/vintage-1970s-puff-sleeve-jacket, which I just bought (it's exactly my size, and I'm a huge sucker for puffed sleeves).
I also really like this - http://www.etsy.com/listing/51062412/vintage-1970s-adorable-mod-tennis-dress. Very Enid Blyton :).
I got here from sew retro...your shop is great! ravenjasmine81 at yahoo.
ReplyDeleteSerious in love with this pattern

ReplyDeleteMy top choice would be McCall's 4509 (minus the sailor collar). But if I had the legs and narrow shoulders for it, I'd be all over McCall's 2438.
Wow, great collection of patterns and so affordable! I'm torn between the 50s summer separates (the cami is adorable) http://www.etsy.com/listing/49330953/vintage-1950s-summer-separates-blouse

Flowers are a symbol of beauty and exude freshness all around. However, fresh flowers have a short shelf life. Drying flowers using the right technique can result in preserving them as close to their original form, flexibility, color and texture. There are many methods that are used to dry flowers.
