On the previous page you'll find a dress I made from an original 1974 pattern that I found in an antique store. I call that post The Lady in Lavender. And lots of other things in between. Hope you enjoy.Trudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11649677045881448393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1983143568219177072.post-50766655243852611942009-08-27T08:24:24.498-08:002009-08-27T08:24:24.498-08:00Looks fantastic!
