<p>wow and double wow - I'll have to dig a little further in the local op shops. They're pretty good on fabric but I've never found any patterns such as these.</p>

<p>Time to kick this thread back to life, don't you think ladies? I just got an early visit from Pattern Santa (or, well, I paid for these by myself but it sure feels like Christmas) and these amazing darlings just came in the mail.</p>

<p>I'm googling estate sales in my area now! My daughter loves to thrift and this would be so much fun for us to do together. :)</p>

<p>I really, really love The Sew Weekly. It's the community I've been looking for. No one else understands the excitement of finding a vintage pattern for a song or gets excited over pin dot fabrics! LOL!</p>
