Check the technique

Sadly this post comes with no pictures, but a request for advice, and an invite! 

I'm starting a new challenge called "Check the technique" where I attempt to check off a list of sewing techniques not yet tried, and I was hoping that you could help me.

Firstly, are there any vintage or heirloom techniques you can suggest?
Secondly, any good tutorials you know of? Maybe you've done one yourself! My first challenge is grading a vintage pattern (32 bust? Ha! As if), but any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance! I promise I'll have something super vintage and fabulous to show off very soon.
