Free pattern: Vintage day gloves

Mary Beth from The Vintage Pattern Collective shares a free vintage pattern at the Pattern Patter blog for making a pair of gloves.  I think this would be a fun project to tackle.  I’ve always wanted to see if I could make my own pair of gloves.  The pattern makes a pair of wrist length “day gloves” or casual gloves.  They’re sewn by hand from jersey fabric.  The pattern originally appeared in a January 1956 Workbasket Magazine.  It comes in small, medium, and large sizes.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
