🌿 NOW AVAILABLE — 1940s Two-Piece Summer Set — $150 🌿

Never worn!

This adorable top-and-skirt set was recreated from an original vintage 1940s sewing pattern and made from 100% cotton Hawaiian print fabric from Hawaii. The cropped peasant-style top can be worn on or off the shoulders, paired with a full gathered skirt for that perfect 1940s summer silhouette.

Measurements:
• Waist: 27”
• Bust: approximately 34–36” — flexible due to the gathered construction
$150 + shipping

Top + skirt are included.

The shorts shown in the photos are not included, but they give you an idea of another way to style the top — pair it with high-waisted shorts or vintage denim for a completely different vintage summer look!

Perfect for vintage events, tiki nights, summer picnics, dancing, or just looking fabulous while drinking something with a tiny umbrella in it. 🍹🌺

DM me for details or to claim!

A quick make to round out my outfit for the Tiki party tonight at D-Day Conneaut.

I love this pattern by Margot Q ! The jacket and the shorts make up beautifully and are so easy! (See previous posts -scroll baby!- for the rest of the outfit 🌺)

If you’re at D-Day this weekend please look for me and say hi! 👋

Let’s start by saying 2026 has not been an easy year. If you follow me, you have probably noticed that I have been markedly absent from social media this year. I am ok, just moving very slowly through life in this season.

I’m very happy to share with you a simple project I just completed that has filled me with joy. ♥️

This 18th C. Bedgown (pattern by American Duchess ) in a tan and red floral print linen. Entirely hand sewn (which I admit I generally hate, but has also been extremely cathartic for me lately).

It is paired with a red linen petticoat and tan/black/red striped cotton apron all also hand sewn.

Hiding underneath are newly sewn pockets, repurposed stays from THIRTY years ago and and new linen shift. (I’ll hope to share in future posts when I have the energy to undress my lady).

If you spied it, the beautiful Dorset button brooch was made by my dear friend at Sharon Lee Bull

I am hoping to get back into some 18th C. events after a 30-year hiatus. Wish me luck! 🙏🏻♥️

I can’t help but love the amazing collar and lines on this late 1930s sun dress.

The pattern was a mashup of a few vintage patterns I had in my stash as well as some drafting as it went along. Now I just need a place to show her off!

What do you suggest? 🤩

DETAILS

On this fabulous late 1930s sun dress.

First of all that back! I mean you’re showing off your shoulders, your back, what’s not to love about this?

I used a vintage metal zipper and vintage brown buckle and buttons to finish it off.

Shown with white shoes but honestly . . . Brown sandals?

What shoes would you wear?

I made this dress several years ago as a spring/summer beachy dress and used a favorite vintage cotton fabric. It was a Franken-pattern self-drafted piece combined from 1930s and 1940s patterns (note the lovely big/long collar of the late 1930s that shows up again in late 40s and again in 60s and 70s)

It’s such a fabulous dress and now that I’m seeing it popping up in pictures again, I’m thinking I really need to come up with a reason to wear it out!

Where would YOU wear this dress?
