I'm sad my seven year old doesn't want his cowboy room anymore but I'm happy he growing up to be such a fine young man. Does anyone had nay Super Mario curtains and bedspread??

Vintage 50s Butterick 6015 Original Walk Away WRAP Dress

Just listed in my store: http://www.sandritocat.etsy.com
The Original Walk Away Dress Butterick 6015
Butterick 6015
copyright 1952
Size: 14
Bust: 32"
Waist: 26½"
Hips: 35"

This is the original 'walk-away' dress pattern, not a reproduction. Butterick released this in 1952 and it ended up being the best selling pattern ever. At one point they even shut down production of all their other patterns to fill the demand for #6015. It was called walk-away because one could start it after breakfast and walk-away in it for luncheon.

Quick & Easy One Piece Wrap Dress. Here's the smartest idea of the season . . . a dress that has only back waist and shoulder seams, that has its back wrapped around to the front for a sheath-and-overskirt look. Binding finishes the edges. Wear it for any occasion. Made from just 3 pattern pieces, no facings!

Fabrics - crepe, taffeta, faille, satin, velveteen, shantung, gingham, chambray, cotton prints, linen, pique, cotton broadcloth.

CUTEST Toddler Patterns!

I simply ADORE these patterns. Their expressions are so cute!

Sucker for Children's Patterns!

I've stumbled upon more wonderful vintage children's patterns. These remind me of the good ole' days. I even found one where I could have been the model for it, the little girl looked so much like my little girl pictures. It's the Lolita dress and the girl int he middle.
