Publisher's Synopsis
Pattern Play, the second in the Vintage Notions Coloring Book series, will take you back to a time when there was a sewing machine in every home and women made their own garments for day & night. This fun collection of over 150 vintage sewing pattern illustrations comes from Indygo Junction pattern designer Amy Barickman's vast vintage archives. Discover styles from long-lost pattern designers such as Advance, Hollywood, & DuBarry. Iconic sewing instructor Mary Brooks Picken once said: "Prepare yourself mentally for sewing...Put on a clean dress. Have your hair in order, powder and lipstick on." This may seem funny to us today, but the happy homemakers of the 1950's always dressed to the nines for all occasions. We have included some of our favorite (and funny) vintage wisdom in these pages sure to inspire your inner Donna Reed. 120 pages to color with full color cover & back.
