Note about vintage patterns:
PLEASE keep in mind these patterns are not new, essentially comprised of old paper and tissue, so you should expect varying degrees of wear and tear due to past ownership, handling, and storage. Examples are, but not limited to: creases, wrinkles (patterns can be ironed) odors, and discoloration. We try to note any significant issues in the listing and photos.
•People didn’t store sewing patterns as precious, like art or books.
•The patterns that remain today are like functional ephemera.
•Any major issues that would effect construction of the garment will be noted.
If you require specific or additional details, please don’t hesitate to message us.
