New clothes or old?

So I have a bunch of things I have made for myself recently, and I say I will blog them, but never seem to get around to it.  So to cut a long story short... here at the things ;)

from McCall 4662 (1940's)

I made this (you have seen it before ;))


From McCall 4304 (1940s):



I made this:


Apparently I need to learn to pose better.
I made Simplicity 4738 (1943), but have yet to get a good photo of it. so We'll wait on that one.

From Simplicity 2017 (1948) I made view 1.


Kind of a fun pattern- here with a helper ;)



And from Simplicity 1538 (1947) I made view 3 with the sleeve from view 4 :)


Complete with silly look on my face :)  You can just about see the yoke at the shoulder there...
The fabric was a real pain to work with, but I love how it looks and feels.
I also have one more pair of shorts (with a blouse almost completed) that I will show some other time :)
In the meantime- enjoy and happy creating!
