I found this fabulous book online and had to have it. It is a wonderful resource of how to make your own patterns with 1950’s detailing. It starts with making your own blocks and then progresses to modifying them to achieve the required detailing e.g pleating, darts, sleeve and collar variations etc. I hope you like my sharing of this wonderful book.

This does look a real treat! Please let us know what you think as you begin using it,
Oooh I love that cape sleeve! That would look so pretty in something silky or in a crepe…
For anyone who likes it, it is in reprint and available on Amazon. I had this book in my collection, I’ve misplaced it but its a great reference. Must locate my copy!
