I love it, I love it not ....

Ebay is such a great place to find out-of-print, vintage patterns. I have my eye on a couple right now, but there is one in particular that I'm not sure if I want it or not.

It's this one, and while I don't care much the short-sleeve version of it, the long sleeve version is ok (I could even put in my own) and I really like the flowy graceful "air" about it. The only drawback would be the neckline, but I could add an inset.

Hmm, do I get it or let is pass? =) Maybe I'll stick to watching a vintage nightgown pattern...

The longsleeved one is pretty, especially if you had a soft flowing fabric. I think it would look nice with an insert in the neckline. :)

Very pretty indeed! I too prefer the long-sleeved version, but mostly in a subjective sense. While the short sleeves would look really nice on the right type of person, I have rather wide shoulders and all the extra fabric wouldn't be very flattering on me.
