I’m been really inspired by vintage sewing patterns lately. I saw this Simplicity pattern from 1959 on eBay and Etsy and fell in love with the neckline. So after three attempts at the pleated bodice, I finally figured out how to simplify and redraw the pattern Barbie size. I want to make the full skirt version too and then publish the sewing pattern for you sewers to enjoy. So watch for the pattern coming soon. Dress is now available in my Etsy shop.

Thanks, Chris! It’s kind of equally fun and frustrating … but rewarding when I finally get it figured out!
