#vintagepledge: A round-up at the halfway mark

posted by Marie on Saturday, June 21, 2014 12 comments
Friends, can you believe we're already halfway through our Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge!?! Time flies when you're stitching up a storm and you've been doing just that. My dedicated Pinterest board is overflowing with your works in progress, as well as your gorgeous finished makes. I've been rounding up the latter in batches, because they're too lovely not to be featured on my blog, and today is no exception.

I hope what you see inspires you to crack on with your pledge, or to sign up in the first place...there are still six months left to get on board! If you want to join in or have a project to show off, you can either leave me a comment, email me, or use #vintagepledge on Twitter. 




Coming up very soon I have the first of my five #vintagepledge makes to unveil, as well as a really exciting guest post to share!!!

Have you been enjoying the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge so far?

    This is such a great idea! It's gotten me motivated to sew some thrifted patterns from my stash - but I'm not sure if 80s and 90s patterns count as "vintage", "retro" or just kind of old. For the second half of the year, I want to sew some older vintage from the 50s & 60s too. :)

      Apparently, the 'official' definition of vintage is anything 20yrs old and older...so 80s and 90s is in! Frightening, eh!?

    WOW! The year is passing quickly. I have a pile of patterns I'd hoped to sew and contribute to the vintage pattern pledge. I'd better shape up!
