No new make, but a new to me machine.
No new make this week. I spent most of my time cleaning up my new to me 1951 Singer 201-2. She is well loved and her appearance shows it. But she was also well taken care of by the way she runs. I’ll share a bit more about her in a separate post.
I did make the dress I’m wearing and here’s the details on that.
Pattern: Gertie’s (Charm Patterns) Mariner dress.
Fabric: Bodice - stylized floral cotton print. Skirt - lightweight wool. The dress is fully lined.
Shoes - House slippers, because we don’t wear shoes in the house.
Adjustments: Elbow length sleeves with piping trim. Basic half circle skirt instead of a full skirt.
Bonus: You might notice the top on my mannequin. It’s an Oktoberfest style UFO (unfinished object) of mine. Made with vintage Lanz of Salzburg fabric. I hope to finish it this week. I’m not a pink girl, but I absolutely love the Bavarian style prints.
