I love using vintage patterns, even though they tend to be a bit harder to follow. I am drawn to 1940s fashion, and often times vintage stores are really expensive, and the clothes don't fit quite right, so making your own version is always a choice solution. I also like being able to manipulate patterns by either adding or eliminating elements of the garmet to my liking. I found this pattern at a local antique shop, and started making the shirt the next day. I think I will try to find some silk fabric for another version since silk just hangs so effortlessly.
