Dear friends, the time has sadly come to say 'farewell'! Don't worry though, I'm only leaving you for just over a week so I can pay my family a visit in Cyprus. And to make up for my abandonment, I'm sharing some delightful extracts from the 1943 Spring/Summer Leach-Way Catalogue of Fashions – just click on the images to see them larger!
I love these handy wartime tips on using remnants and spending less tokens on economical designs:
Beautiful dresses for work and play:
My favourite...summer fashions! I love the checked coat and the blue polka dot dress:

The catalogue was kindly gifted to me by a generous colleague, after she discovered my love for sewing vintage...thanks Chris!
Hope you all have a productive week ahead...I'm sure I'll be checking in for my daily dose of your creations!
Have a great trip!
