Misses XS-3XL

Fashions towards the end of the 1930s combined the frugality of the lean Depression years with touches of Hollywood extravagance. Our sewing pattern is for a practical dress that uses fabric economically, yet still looks chic and trendy.

In the late 1930s, the glamorous and glittering distractions of Hollywood were a distraction from an often grim realities of everyday life.  As Americans began to pull out of the Great Depression, they watched and mimicked the fun and fancy ways of the wealthy the best they could.  World War II was yet to come and US citizens reveled in an upbeat, although naive, mood.   

View A, drafted from an original dress (circa 1939) features round neck with collar points and peplum cleverly cut on the straight grain but with the slimming look of a bias cut. It has a back zipper, dropped waistline, and short sleeves. The unpressed tucks in the front eliminate the need for bust darts and create a fashionable broad shouldered look of the period.

View B is our designer's variation of the original design. It has a more casual look, with buttoned front bodice, flounce collar and sleeves, back zipper and eyelash pockets with flounce pocket bands.

Both dresses have a slightly flared skirt that is very flattering.

This pattern is available as a Paper pattern and PDF pattern.  Choose the pattern format you want in the drop down menu.  The PDF pattern has instructions and files for copy shop (36” and A0), print at home (A4 and 8.5”x11”) and projector file.

Suggested fabrics: Rayon, medium-weight silk, microfiber, or other fabrics with drape. View B is particularly attractive in small-print fabrics with sheer flounces.

Versatile Wristlet for Travel or Everyday Use
Color: Vanilla/Soft Pink, Color: Vanilla/Soft Pink
This is a very nice wristlet with a clean, polished look. The color combination of the off-white exterior and dusty pink interior gives it an elegant and timeless feel, as expected from this brand. One of the features I liked most is the ability to carry a phone inside. It did fit my phone without a case, and the snap closure helped keep it secure. With a bulkier case, the fit was more limited, so that’s something to keep in mind. It can be used on its own with the wristlet strap or placed inside a larger purse, which makes it versatile for different situations. There’s plenty of room for essentials, including multiple credit cards, an ID window, a zippered pouch for coins, and space for cash. The layout is well thought out and keeps everything organized. The stitching and overall construction appear well done, with no visible flaws. Overall, this is a stylish, functional wristlet that offers good organization and flexibility for everyday use or travel.
