I've decided to enter the vintage sewing contest at Pattern Review. This is one of the dresses I've decided to make.
I'm also going to make a basic dress for Greta using a vintage pattern I have. I have to figure out how to make a crinoline so she gets that super poofy vintage look! I think I'll just wing the slip/crinolinefor her
My plans also include making a purse and a slip (my fabric is a sheer rayon) and I might attempt to make a hat using instructions from the book It's Fun to Make A Hat (love that title!)

Once, when I needed a crinoline, I sewed about 2 1/2 or triple length of tulle, about 1/3 of the way down the waistline, on a skirt (cylinder shape with an elastic waist) made of lining material. I used tulle that was a bit firm so that it would hold the skirt out properly.
