    While I'm not totally into sewing, patterns etc, I was excited and nervous to watch this one. So cool to see history 'unfold' 😉

      Thanks! I was also both of those feelings.

    Not going to lie, I thought it was just blank tissue when you unwrapped it, then I remembered that many vintage patterns are "unprinted". I'm surprised the tissue is in such good condition! It doesn't look old at all.

    The nervous quotes alone make this worth the price of admission.

    It would have been great if you had actually made the skirt. Showing us how the pattern was used and compared information provided then and now. I really hope you will do a video like this in the future. I realise it would be a lot of work, but your expertise in vintage patterns would make it historically valuable as well as interesting.

    Riveting to watch you opening up this historical artefact! 👍 I'd forgotten that they used to actually cut out the pattern pieces for the user in the dim and distant past...

    I have been so excited to watch this video and to see these old patterns because I heard they rarely had instructions and everyone was thin!

    • @StephanieCanada

      There are instructions, but they are scant. And huzzah for corsets to help create the desired silhouette!

      I was toying around with making a tracing and selling the tracing. Would you like one if I do that.

    2 questions....did you get the tape off without damage? and the most important question....are you going to make yourself a skirt with the pattern? I sure hope so...

    I wish they still made pre-cut patterns. I truly detest cutting out pattern pieces. It is my actual least favorite part of sewing.

    • @StephanieCanada
      @StephanieCanada  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh me too! I would be tempted to buy new ones. But oh well, I love finding and selling vintage patterns for that very reason.

    • @StephanieCanada

      Thank you so much! It really was as thrilling and terrifying as it looked. I had been dreading opening it for fear of it being some other random pattern.

      Exactly! Except I don't have worry about the fear of imminent doom if I fail.
