Today I'm taking on a challenge from one of you, drafting Simplicity 1832 from 1946! This 1940's dress has some gathering as well as princess seams, or does it? Well for once at least it doesn't have a waist seam. Today I'll be showing how I would draft this design and putting together a quick mock up as a proof of concept so you can see how it would go together.

But wait there's more! A PO BOX finally wahoo!
First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn't fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can't keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!
