“Not used except For Pocket” — that may, in fact, be my epitaph. (Wouldn’t that look good on a gravestone? It’s surprising how much time I spend thinking about my grave marker considering that I intend to be cremated, isn’t it?)
Anyway, memento mori schemento mori, look at this pattern! It’s lovely (even if the photo is a bit fuzzy). I likes it. and I want to know why someone opened it up and only used the pocket. imagine how good the other, pocketless dress had to be to be more worth sewing than this one!
This one is on sale from penny at Antique Dollhouse of Patterns — she’s offering 35% of through Sunday (Paypal orders only, though). So you can browse through her site until you find the pattern that’s annotated with “Used — No Pocket Piece”, right?
Oh, and here’s an idea: who wants to start assembling a “found poetry” page on the vintage Patterns Wiki based on things written on pattern envelopes? With almost 28,000 (!) patterns, there must be a number of interesting notes to choose from!
