Wearing History #R145–  Begonia Mid 1930s Pattern

E-PATTERN!  To print at home on US LETTER or A4 paper.  Also includes Copy Shop A0 files!

This lovely mid 1930s dress features a v-neck cut with a semi-circular attached cape, and an optional cape ruffle and bow, The skirt hits mid-calf, and is slim fitted through the hips and flares below the knees. The dress fastens at the side. The neckline and armholes are finished with self bias facing.

The dress is perfect for day or afternoon wear, and makes up nicely in flowing fabrics.  I suggest cotton lawn, rayon, eyelet, lace, or other flowing, lightweight fabrics.  Note– no slip is included, so if it's sheer you'll want to make or buy a slip!


This pattern is available in two size packs.  See photos for the sizes included!

The misses size pack is from the original period source and is available in bust 30"-42".  The base size was 38" bust.  This has been graded to include the same size range as the pattern was originally available in (only one size per pack in ye olden days!).

The extended size pack was redrafted to a new base size and is available in bust 41"-51". The original vintage pattern didn't grade properly to that size, so the base size was entirely redrafted to fit a body form of 45" bust.  This draft is unique to Wearing History and enables more sizes. Yay!

Between size packs?  Order the extended size pack if you have a larger hip to waist ratio.

 

Difficulty

Adventurous intermediate sewing difficulty recommended.

The pattern instructions are from the period original and can be vague.  Keep a sewing book handy for reference.

This pattern requires bias facing for armholes and neck opening, and an inset front piece on the cape can be a bit tricky.  This pattern has a side opening with snaps. 

I have added a page of illustrated instructions to help you with the construction on the cape piece.  Bias facing tutorials can be found on Wearing History Blog.

3/8" seam allowance is included.  Add more before you cut if you feel more comfortable with wider seam allowances.

 

This is a Wearing History Resto-Vival pattern- a pattern based on remastered original period sources that have been restored and revived.  Want to know more about this range?  Check out my F.A.Q.

Very easy to put up and assemble!
Size: 48 inch 3 Tier, Size: 48 inch 3 Tier
We were looking for a nice shelf over our coffee bar, and this industrial pipe shelf was perfect! This was very easy to assemble! Simply put in your anchors and screw in the bases! We ordered the three tier shelf but only needed two, and it was very easy to make that adjustment! I loved that this was solid wood shelving rather than particle board.

beautiful and sturdy
Size: 48 inch 2 Tier
The shelf is beautiful and sturdy. The only small complaint are the instructions to put it together are deceiving because pieces were put together for shipping purposes (we assume) but didn't actually go together which took us a few times to figure out. I recommend putting it together off the wall before trying it on the wall so you know what pieces go where.

Cheaply made
Size: 48 inch 2 Tier
I would not recommend this shelf. There are no instructions included - just a simple drawing of putting it together but nowhere says what drill bit size to use for the plastic anchors which are square on the end and not round. In addition, you cannot fully tighten the iron brackets or they won’t alight on the wall to hang the shelf. Each piece of metal piping has part of the black coating stripped off as well. And on top of that, the bottom of each shelf is unfinished and looks as though they used a filler to hide holes in the shelf. Not worth the money or the hassle.
