Hi There! My name is Adelaide and I am very excited to finally join Sew Retro. I’ve been sewing since I was a kid, but have only recently become interested in making my own retro fashions. (Fueled in large part by this website!) I was retro 70’s in the 80’s, which was much too soon for everyone around me. Now I am greatly inspired by the 40’s and 50’s.

My most recent vintage project was Simplicity 3029, which I call the Bonnie skirt because my friend Bonnie gave me the pattern. I have a pretty exhaustive review on my blog.
Ooh, what a great skirt pattern! I amy have to track this one down. Your version looks very nice!
Nice, and so wearable. It's always tempting to me to use prints whenever I sew because they're so FUN! So, subsequently, I don't end up with too many practical, wearable, pretty pieces. This simple black skirt inspired me!
