Dress giveaway: Marian Martin 9359 (1940's): Winner!
The winner is Julie C!
Thanks to everybody who entered. I'm glad to see this dress move on to a better place. I'm also in the process of culling my pattern collection to hopefully I'll have some patterns to give away in the future.
Dress giveaway: Marian Martin 9359 (1940's)
This kind of breaks my heart, but I know she'll go to a better place, so it's for the best.
Behold: Marian Martin 9359 (no date, late 1940's):
(Click on the image for a larger, though still slightly out-of-focus, version.)
She was one of my first serious sewing attempts, and I love her dearly. Alas, she no longer fits.
In the interest of full disclosure, this is a secondhand dress, but she has no damage and has not been washed to death. All sewing is by machine and all her seams are finished (flat-felled). She is made of good-quality Moda quilting cotton in a mottled rust color with small black and white stylized floral print, and black rick-rack trim. She has a zipper closure in her left side. She does not have shoulder pads, although they can be added by the winner (I have square shoulders, and her shoulder-line was altered slightly to take up the slack that would originally have gone toward shoulder pads).
She has a lot of life left in her and I would love to see her go to a loving new home.
Giveaway is for the dress only, not the pattern.
Size: Advertised as a size 18 1/2 (bust 36, petite), however, that's me in the photo and I am 5'7" and was about a bust 38 at the time.
If you are interested, leave a comment here or email me through my blog, and I'll put your name in the hat. Be sure I have a way to contact you in case you're the lucky winner.

My Very First Giveaway!
Hello all, I just thought I'd let you know that there's a great giveaway going on at my blog A Few Threads Loose.
The giveaway includes a lovely vintage pattern, a vintage edition of Work Basket Magazine from 1960, some great retro fabric, and some cute buttons to top it all off.
The pattern is really cool. It's called a "Scoop Neck Skimmer" and it's printed by McCall's for mail order. It's a size 10-12, Bust 31-32 and is uncut and in factory folds. (Don't you just love being the first person to use a pattern?)
Stop by and enter to win!

Please take a look and participate if you'd like.

Thanks!
1960's pattern giveaway.
To celebrate reaching 100 followers I want to do a little give away. I have not yet gotten around to sewing this pattern yet, and with the current to-do list I have set for myself, it seems this beautiful pattern won't be sewn anytime soon! Such a shame for it to be sitting on my shelf unloved... I want to give it a new home!
Entry is open to anyone, you don't have to be a follower of my blog (but if you are you get two entries).
Check it out at my blog,
