Making 1940's Trousers From a Vintage Pattern // Sewing Project Diary

That's right, I used a commercial pattern! McCall 5169 from 1943, Ladies' and Misses' Slacks Ensemble. I purchased this original 1940's vintage pattern on Etsy to try and make some forties style trousers for my retro wardrobe. Let's see how I get on with them...

But wait there's more! A PO BOX finally wahoo!

First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn't fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can't keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!
