Vintage sewing pattern - torn and repaired with tiny strips of tape
Blondie sent me a bunch of paper kits from Ann Vanture's Paper Minis for my birthday last month that included a kit for vintage sewing patterns. I nearly bought these myself, but I didn't have time to order them for the Heritage attic finale. The kit makes six patterns, and it was easy peasy! Cut, fold and glue.
Since these will go in the Heritage attic, I added a yellow paint wash after crinkling the paper. It's just the right amount of age and wear. (The pattern envelope is colorfast, but the pattern tissue was not.)
For one of the patterns, I removed the upper tab, made a tear in the front and repaired it with tiny strips of tape.
