New Patterns: 2012 April 11

Simplicity 3641 (1940): Juniors' (odd-numbered size; 15/bust 33 in this case) blouse with Peter Pan collar, and jumper with V neckline.


Butterick See & Sew 4612 (1996): This is for a costume project, or I wouldn't bother. Will probably need bust darts added.


DuBarry 3354B (1940?): I've wanted one of these for, like, two years. This one is a size too small and missing the instructions, but I'm sure I can figure it out. Isn't she adorable?


Advance 5699 (1949?): Day dress with diagonal tucks. This might have to be a stripe. I was saving this light blue and white Moda for another dress but it's a possibility for this, too.

I could also use the gray chambray.


DuBarry 2726B (1941?): Princess housedress or day dress with short or band sleeves, collar, and split neck. I think I saw the perfect loud 1940's reproduction floral for this when I was shopping for housecoat fabric.


Advance 2963 (1941): Nice, plain, blouse.


2610 (1940's): Princess housedress with square neckline and flutter sleeves. It's getting hot already and I think I could make a half-dozen of these and live in them all summer.
