Thrifty Fishy Necklace

I thrifted this cutie with my mom in a local thrift store. I just couldn't resist!! I've worn him a few times all ready. I LOVE this necklace!!

New Swimsuit!

Summer is just around the corner which means SWIMSUITS! When I first saw this pattern, I fell in love. It's modest, vintage, cute, and my style. Every pattern I found was sold. FINALLY, I found this one on Etsy and ordered it right away. I'm going to use the Gingham red check spandex/nylon fabric. The pattern should be here Friday. I'M SO EXCITED!

Vintage Patterns

Gorgeous vintage patterns from the late 40s to the late 60s. I love my grandma's patterns. She had to wear a dress to school, so she just sewed all her clothes. I wish it was like that nowadays. More patterns to come from the 60s to late 70s.
