Sewing Patterns
Vintage sewing patterns can be so much fun! A great way to add a vintage look and style to your wardrobe in just the right size, color and fabric for you.I have had a lot of fun bringing you this selection of patterns from many different eras - starting with about 1910 all the way to more modern times. There is a nice smattering from all of the major manufacturers like Vogue, McCalls, Butterick and Simplicity. Let us not forget some of the older, no longer around manufacturers and mail order companies like Anne Adams, Hollywood and Kate Marchbanks.Patterns which are not uncut and still in factory folds, have all been checked and counted. Usually, one of a kind with only the occasional duplicate in stock. I am always adding new stock, so check back often.

So did universities and the Dept. of Agriculture - just to mention a few.Magazines were also popular ways of selling patterns and products. These types of sewing related items will also be found here.
Sewing Machine Manuals
Instruction manuals are sure handy to have around when trying thread or operate any sewing machine - vintage or otherwise. They are also full of other information too like the attachments, presser feet, sewing techniques. They often include oil and care of your sewing machine.Sewing machine companies like Singer, Husqvarna Viking, White, Pfaff, Kenmore and other companies usually included one with a machine when it was sold. In time, they can be separated from their machine and become orphaned.Here you will find original, vintage and old sewing machine manuals to go with your sewing machine. Also, other orphaned manuals for the various attachments, buttonholers and gizmos made through the years. Even the occasional, generic manual often made for rotary, treadle and early sewing machines.All of the manuals and pamphlets are original.
