Vintage Darling!

Being so inspired by the amazing outfits of vintage 2015,and having not managed to live up to my own pledge I thought that this year I would pledge with items that should actually suit me and my lifestyle. So #vintagepledge2016  here I come!!

I would like to pledge two tops, the first being a beautiful blouse that my Mum has made many times herself and now I would like a simple but stylish casual ease.



The second top is a T-shirt suitable for everyday and a good pattern to practice with my over locker

.
I would also like to pledge to use vintage fabrics, the being a lovely heavy cotton that I am planning for my Phoebe (obviously not vintage).


I also have this lovely pattern in my stash that I would like to tackle at some point.


I find it amazing to see how the most beautiful patterns seem so relevant and stylish today. It makes me wonder what does vintage mean to you?  
Anyone joining in?

  2. These patterns are all lovely, but I'm particularly taken with that Vogue one! I planned to join in last year but didn't get round to using any of my vintage patterns. This year I'm planning to have another go at it though as I've a few lovely vintage dress patterns I'd like to sew up.
