In an attempt to be a more thrifty vintage-ette I set out on a mission to sew my own clothes.
In specific I am focusing on basic day wear to add to my closet.
My first attempt at Vintage garment making was this lovely Butterick Pattern.
Its a blouse pattern in 3 variations, although I kind of picked a few pieces from each to create my blouse.
I suppose I am really lucky, because I did not make a mock-up muslin, and just threw it all together. It fits like a perfect pleasant glove!
Some of the instructions eluded me, and I just kind of dove in head first, but I think it turned out spledid.
I am sure you would love to see the results:

Oh it turned out so cute! Love the fabric too. If the size on the pattern is yours then I need to give you some of my vintage sewing patterns. Some are too small for me, but I cant let them go to just anyone ;)
yeah its my size. And I got those patterns :) THANKS that advance dress one was TO DIE FOR, I think it will be my spring project.
Oh I'm glad you like them, I love the dress one too, cant wait for warmer weather!
That turned out so cute. You choose the perfect fabric for it and your sewing turned out great!
That is so cool! I've been wanting to try out my vintage patterns for soooo long, but I haven't sewn since I was a kid. You may have given me the inspiration to give it a go!
