I am posting several vintage patterns every day for the next week or so, less tomorrow, as we are going fishing.  I need to clear out a lot to make the sewing room handle a desk for work reasons. I have a lot of half sizes and a lot of B32, B34, B36.

10% off my store items added some new vintage patterns, adding more every day, thinning the herd. https://www.etsy.com/shop/LadybugDuds?ref=hdr_shop_menu

I haven't sewn a lot last year or so.  One thing I have done is a vintage dress for youngest child to be Jackie Kennedy in a president's day project.  I used Vintage Simplicity 5904 from the mid 60's.  A line sheath with side pleats and a three quarter sleeved jacket.  I made it all the more difficult by lining the dress and jacket, but I ended the dress lining above pleated area.  Her face is cropped out, but she had the sweetest yellow vintage hat and the gloves.  All was well for her.

A new-to-me fun etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/thestockroom Just bought some new fabric from them and they are from Waco, TX. 

I did some sewing recently, finished a UFO or two, and some quilt blocks, but not enough to really matter.  I only recently started blog reading again.  I have been so busy with four kids and working, there's not much time for fun stuff.  My husband is now working for a friend's start-up company for oilfield services.  I took over a lot of the operations of his freight brokerage business that is in our home office.  I walk past my things and want to sit down, but it hasn't happened much recently. At least I am blog reading and learning from all of you.
