Saundra Ros Altman's: Past Patterns

The Vintage Revivals patterns are only one size; the original size. The pattern envelope, instructions and pattern pieces are unedited. The older the pattern the more likely it is to have limited instructions. The patterns are printed on blue line paper and packaged in plastic.

The waist portion below the yoke will prove a good design to make up waists to be worn with guimpes." Minimal directions. Pattern dates circa 1899.
