Last week ended my never ending job search. After 6 months of going without a job I am happy to announce that I am now gainfully employed! Now all I have to do is make new clothes. I have some things to start me off but not nearly enough. I am going to start with a dress that can double for work and also for a wedding I have to sing in. I hope i get it done by next week. My first day at work is Monday!
This is the dress I want to make. Even though I have my own shop on Etsy where I sell vintage patterns, I don't have anything like this. I bought this from Omega at Embonpoint Vintage. She has some lovely stuff. Both my patterns and hers are draft your own size variety. The pattern pieces come really small and you draft your own size using a special scale that is taped to a tape measure. I will post a tutorial on how these patterns work later.
I too, bought one of Omega's patterns and want to buy some more. I wish I were more like you and could understand the Embonpoint pattern instructions. I'll wait for your tutorial if you don't mind?

I love those patterns. Which one did you buy? I am in the middle of writing a tutorial now so I should have it up soon.
