I remember when... Simplicity 8758
View 3 was the version that I made for my very first 4H project. The fabric was white light weight twill with small aqua snowflake like stars. I remember the hardest part was the set in sleeves.
A Lesson in Textiles: Simplicity 7733
In Junior High, my father shipped some silk fabric from Hong Kong back to the states. My mom made a dress using this pattern and some yellow orange silk. As a preteen, I was most disappointed as the the silk was not shiny or shimmery as expected. At the time, I envisioned that silk was more like satin. Despite my disappointment, my first lesson in textiles was a hard lesson learned.
