Thursday Tab- Brooke and Erin, 1973 Pattern Catalog PDs
These files have been removed at the request of the original pattern catalog artist. My apologies to the artist for using the images without permission.
Look at the styles today...They are very similar. I made a long dress for my cousins wedding(in the early 70's), that must have been the same pattern as the red jumper with the ruffles...A walk down memory lane.... #4
Accually I think Mom made the yellow gingham pattern for #3's wedding dress and mine and Mary Pats Brides maid dresses, I also made several smock tops and loved every one of them
look at those sleeves - I can't believe I wore that! Horror - everyone looked like they were wearing maternity clothes. The shoes were very cool though. Thanks Kathi once again! Jan H

I think I still have some of those patterns -- are they classic or vintage now?
ReplyDeleteI think my sisters actually *made* some of the clothes in these patterns back when they first came out.
ReplyDelete#4- I think #2 used the yellow gingham dress pattern for her first wedding dress.
ReplyDeletebmom- I like vintage better than *geezer*... heh...
Maire: I know I sewed several of those smock top things for myself. and loved them totally... so embarrassing...

ReplyDeleteAh #4- You're right. I had the numbers mixed up (the joys of getting old...)

Brooke and Erin were who I wanted to be as a young teen in the 70s. I was so in awe of my friend Deb whose mom allowed her to "go mod" one summer.
