vintage patterns + trims

My mom surprised me with a bag of vintage patterns from the 1950s from my grandma and step-grandma. Wow, what an awesome gift! Thanks, Mom! Here are a few of my favorites. Sorry the photos are all sideways. Someone please tell me how to rotate my photos in blogger!

This one says "Designed for CHUBBIES." Really??

Sun dress for playing!

  

I could totally rock this look.

Itty bitty baby patterns.

Not only did I get patterns, but I also got two giant boxes of vintage trims, ric-rac, and lace!  This photo is only one box. The other was chock full of lace.









Here are two of my favorites:

This is the pattern I am going to work on this weekend. A little pinafore for Ruthie.

I already have a fabric in mind. The best part is the pattern pieces are already cut for me. I can think of nothing more fitting for memorial day than working on one of my grandmother's sewing patterns. Have a great weekend!
