Hello,
I am Isabelle, 32, living and working in France. I have a blog for 4 years (and a son for 2 years!) http://dessinsadessein.hautetfort.com
I posted for a long time only sketches and paintings. For few months, I post also about sewings stuffs.
I used to sew exclusively japanese. Then I bought few vintage patterns on Etsy almost because I am petite (size 8, bust 31). And I had a lot of fun with my vintage patterns ! So I bought few others and few others…
I am looking for vintage patterns in France, in thrift store or flea markets and I hardly find one.
I am very happy to join Sew retro !

Welcome Isabelle! If you can afford teh shipping, there are certainly many vintage patterns in your size on ebay — I see them all the time and weep! (just kidding, but I am hardly a B31 so I do groan a little!)
Oh I hate when I make that typo. THE shipping.
Buying vintage patterns is my new addiction
