fabulous party last evening & surprise vintage pattern!

 My wonderful husband and my sweet super model friend were holding out on me!  Miss Amanda found the vintage pattern and brought it over last evening.

You can imagine my excitement!  so now I will spend many joyful hours reading the pattern, buying the fabric, making a muslin and eventually making a fabulous dress. 

I'm impatiently waiting for the criteria for next year's Charleston Fashion Week and hope that I can fit my new pattern and several additional vintage patterns into the puzzle pieces to come up with a collection to show...

and I'm persuading Miss Amanda to be my model!  She started the party last evening when she walked in looking like she just walked off the runways of Milan. 

Please wish me luck as I languish in the sweet solitude of fabric and tissue, pins and scissors! 


I finally am the proud owner of Vintage 1972 McCalls # M3206!  .. been looking for a copy of this since borrowing it from a friend in 1973!
