Stay tuned for more posts to come with news about our upcoming fabric sale, more vintage patterns, inspiring photos of a gorgeous heirloom dress for an older girl and lots more goodies.

You don't see many vintage patterns like this one, they are getting very hard to find. Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested in it because I doubt that it will be available for very long.
