These tissue paper flowers are made from red tissue paper and repurposed sewing patterns. Each flower is about 4" across and the black pipe cleaner stem is about 8" long with a button threaded on for fun. Each flower is unique and the set of 4 will be randomly chosen from those I have on hand. Make great gift toppers!
Note that the sleeve cuffs here are about an inch wider than the original SYL cuffs. I decided to cut them back to the original width, then finished the dress. All changes explained in the Flickr photos.
spring sewing project #1 = done! this is megan nielsen’s darling ranges dress in anna maria horner’s loulouthi voile (yes, two wonderful and inspiring women combined in one dress!!). i just love everything about this the dress – the waistline, the buttons, the pockets…!! oh, and i love the way the voile flows! and the little pattern booklet is so cute! i just shortened the length of the sleeves and skipped the elastic. wearing this dress certainly puts me in a very very happy mood!!
Here is my sewn sample of the real life size version. Voting ends Wednesday April 4, so if you think it's a winner then get your vote in if you haven't yet. Thanks!
Pictorial Review Pattern Catalog, July 1928. RARE!!!
Pictorial Review magazine started producing their own sewing patterns around the turn of the century (1900). Simplicity bought Pictorial's pattern business in 1936, and the magazine merged with The Delineator (associated with the Butterick pattern company) in 1937. Delineator magazine folded in 1939.
Pictorial Patterns are rare to find today. If you find one, you can bet it is from before 1936, though some unverified evidence suggests Simplicity continued using the "Pictorial" name in Australia for a time (until 1950s?)

McCall 7186 & 6853
copyright 1963 & 1964
The top is missing from 7186 (Size 14 Hip 36)
The skirt is missing from 6853 (Size 16 Bust 36)
These patterns were purchased from an estate clipped together so I believe a dress was made from these two pattern being merged.
McCall's 6853; ©1963; Misses' and Junior Dress. Scooped neck, puffed sleeve dress, with one-piece gathered skirt, is cut crosswise from border print or other fabric. Sleeves are gathered into armholes and into bands. Other version, for sheer fabrics, has four-gore skit; bodice is lined and gathered underskirt is included in waistline seam. Plain set-in sleeves are trimmed with lace insertion to match skirt. Either dress has center back zipper.
McCalls 7186 Dress with scoopneck, bloused bodice and hour gore, gathered skirt may be of sheer to other fabric. Bodice is gathered in waistline seam at back and at side front and inside belting holds blousing in place. bodice of sheer dress is lined and gathered underskirt included in waistline seams. Dress has left side zipper.
I didn't get anything accomplished today. I wanted to cut some patterns while watching some TV but Jack (on the table) and Toby wanted my attention.

Considering that I haven't sewn clothing from a pattern since my mom helped me make a reversible vest in high school, I'm pretty happy with this re-venture into apparel making!

Description
Advance Sew-Easy Pattern - A Trousseau Wardrobe For Barbie. Fits Barbie and similar 11-1/2" Girl Dolls. Six outfits. Dated 1962.
Patterns include: Bridal Gown, Crown and Veil; Sheath Dress and Jacket; Shirtwaist Dress; Engagement Party Dress; Nightgown; Peignoir.
copyright 1960s
Mostly uncut. Complete. Nightgown Cut, Engagement Dress cut all the rest are uncut! Envelope has nicks and chips.
I made this pattern for use on Midnight Magic dolls. I made the top without a lining. The neck and sleeves can't be folded under so I covered the raw edges by folding ribbon over them and sewing it on. The skirt is long enough that it can be hemmed. The ruler on the lower right side must be actual size when printed to be sure it'll work.
Since Monster High's Nefera is a similar size it may also work for her. I can't try it out on my own Nefera since I'm keeping her in the box.
