Join the 2015 Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge!

posted by Marie on Friday, January 09, 2015 217 comments

Back by popular demand, the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge has returned for a second year! For those of you who don't know, it all started last year when I realised I've been buying vintage and reproduction sewing patterns faster than I can sew them, so I pledged to use at least five of them during 2014. I invited you all to join me on a whim and was overwhelmed with the response - over 100 of you took the pledge and we sewed up almost 200 makes between us! You can admire all of the makes on my dedicated Pinterest board.

EXCITING PLANS FOR 2015

This year the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge is going to be even bigger and better, mainly because I have a co-host! The wonderful Kerry of Kestrel Makes and I will be working tirelessly to bring you monthly inspiration posts through the decades, insights into fellow stitchers' vintage pattern stashes, giveaways and discounts, round-ups of your makes, and final prizes. Exciting stuff, no!?! 

Whether you're taking part in the pledge or not, if you have an enviable or eclectic vintage sewing pattern collection we'd love to hear from you! You could be one of our montly interviewees!

MAKE THE PLEDGE YOUR OWN

If numerical targets aren't your thing, there are many other ways you can join in, like pledging to:

  • Use your first ever vintage sewing pattern.
  • Sew up a specific pattern from your stash.
  • Explore patterns from a particular decade.
  • Have fun patterns from a certain range of decades.
  • Get creative with you vintage sewing patterns!

Although I didn't quite achieve my 2014 pledge, managing just three of my five promised makes, the fun I had and the excitement of seeing all your makes was second to none. In the hope that I can do better this year, I'm sticking to the same pledge:

During 2015, I, Marie Koupparis, will sew up at least five of my vintage or reproduction sewing patterns.  

SHARE YOUR MAKES

Without a doubt, the best part of the pledge last year was seeing all of your makes! Once again we'll be sharing your makes on Pinterest, but we can't do it without you. To inspire others and be in with a chance of winning a final prize, you can share your makes by:


So, what are you waiting for? Grab a button (beautifully designed by my boyfriend again) and start spreading the word!

    I am in for sure. I have loads of "true" vintage patterns, vintage repros and copies of Victorian and Edwardian patterns from companies that find and reissue then. I also have some precious (to me) plus-size vintage patterns so could make something that actually fits me. Quick question though, I have some books which have historical/vintage garments from museum collections sketched out as small drawings. If I were to translate that into a pattern does it count?


    I Kelly, from Mother of Reinvention wil sew *at least* three vintage patterns in 2015! xx

    Last year I aimed for 3 and managed 7 but as my next few planned projects are't vintage I don't want to overreach myself! I'm so excited to be co-hosting :-)

I left a comment on Kerry's blog but I thought I would let you know as well. I have a collection of vintage patterns that I would love to share with everyone so if you are looking for more people to interview or pattern collections to share please let me know. :)

    I've recently discovered vintage patterns and have collected far more than I will ever be able to make up in my lifetime! I've realised that I'm totally drawn to cute little 1950's style tops, full skirted 1950's style dresses, asymetric details and pleats on bums!

    How old is vintage? I thought the generally accepted definition was 50 years old but I see in the comments that people are referring to patterns of a more recent date. I want to join the Pledge but the number of garments that I pledge depends upon the definition as i have a limited number dated from before 1955.

    I, Gabrielle of Up Sew Late, will sew and blog at least four vintage patterns in 2015. I'll try to choose a mix from my collection of proper old patterns, recent Vogue vintage reproduction patterns, and "retro" patterns, and they'll likely be a mixture of kids and adult patterns.

    Before another month runs away with me, I must get 'pledging' checked off of my list! So...
    I, Laura Stanford, lingerie designer, maker and co-author of The Secrets of Sewing Lingerie will make time for some personal non-lingerie sewing!

    I have two goals, as it's going to be a busy year... Firstly, I will finish remaking my favourite vintage 1940's dress which sadly went past wearing last year. It now only exists as picked apart pieces, photos and an almost finished draft of a pattern.
    Secondly, I want to make a Vogue 2241 dress. I want to fit it and then adapt it into something inspired by THAT green dress from Atonement. Which will lead me nicely onto my 2016 #vintagepledge most likely!

    Good luck all you lovely pledgers! I'll keep you posted and hope to keep myself motivated by all your amazing posts throughout the year...

    I, Pam of Antipodean Stitcher, pledge to sew at least six (more - I'd already made one) vintage patterns in 2015, AND to use vintage fabrics for at least six projects. Honestly, I have a bunch of vintage patterns and fabrics in my stash that I've yet to use, so hopefully this can be a motivator.

    I, Ronnie of NO Blog but have a Burdastyle account http://www.burdastyle.com/profiles/ronnielee don’t need much encouragement for making a vintage sewing pledge. My vast vintage pattern collection, years ranging from (1922 to 1970's) At last count, I've made over 60 garments from vintage patterns. I've been very lucky on my fabric finds also. I have a least 20 patterns I haven't used yet, my pledge will be to make 4 new items with the next few months.

    I, Elie, of attieanddora.com, will use my first vintage sewing pattern in 2015. I was very lucky to be given a box of vintage patterns recently by a good friend, so I really have no excuse now. Very excited to give this a try.

    I'm super obsessed with 1940s fashion right now thanks to the show Bomb Girls! Very excited about this challenge but nervous too! :) Can't wait to see what you all come up with! I'm shooting for the big 5.

    I Donna from NZ am a bit late starting but I aim to make one from my stash of retro patterns using material in my stash. I'd love to say 5 but I have to learn how to adjust the patterns first, especially FBA. Here's hoping it goes well so I keep going...LOL

    Awesome challenge. I only just found it. I sewed my first (and second) vintage dresses for my daughter during Spring KCW. I'm still learning to grade patterns so I will keep my pledge small for now. I Logan of https://loganstitches.wordpress.com/ pledge to sew up at least one more (for a total of 3) vintage pattern from my vintage pattern stash in 2015 and to get said stash inventoried and stored properly.

    I am going to make 5 as well! I have just started sewing from pattern so this will be ideal for me to improve and make something that can't be found in shops.

    I am going to make 5 pieces from vintage recreation patterns in 2015.
    So, I, Kate of Adventures of a Fashionista Geek, pledge to make at least 5 (but hopefully more) vintage reproduction pieces from patterns I already have.

    I, Krystle, am taking this pledge. I will try my best to use at least 5 of my many many patterns in number so my husband doesn't have to say to me any longer, "why don't you use the patterns you already have?"
