It wasn't that long ago that while thrifting, my eyes caught a cute print with enough yardage for a dress. There is no name on the salvage, and the polyester-feeling fabric is of higher quality than that of Wal-mart's, and it's not as heavy as JoAnn's silky prints, so I'm not sure if it's vintage or not.
Some vintage buttons from my stash should help give it a vintage vibe. Since when did Sears sell buttons? Note to self: check with google as soon as this post is finished!
Now if I can find the time to sew, that would be nice... :) It's almost as much fun to plan for something as is the fruition of it.

That promises to be a most charming frock! I really love those buttons!! :-)
Thankyou, Lily! I have an extra card that you're certainly welcome to if you'd ever want to trade buttons. :)
Lovely fabric!
That fabric is pretty...so the dress is sure to be also.
Crystal, and Mrs. H, it's amazing what kind of stuff you can find at thrift stores, including enough yardage for a dress! :)
Cheri, Oooh! How very tempting! :-) I'll have to keep my eyes open for some suitable ones to trade! ;-)
That is a lovely pattern. Could you tell me what the pattern number is & the name of the company, as I would love to find that pattern too.
Have a great day,
Sarah Grace
Sarah Grace,
Forgive my tardiness in replying to your comment! The pattern came from Eva Dress patterns and the number is 1432. If it's helpful, here is a link directly to it:
