Instructions
PLEASE DO NOT SEND REQUESTS. THESE PATTERNS ARE NOT FOR SALE. I AM NOT CAPABLE TO ANSWER REQUESTS and/or QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME--thanks.
If you see a pattern that you wish to have a copy of, you may be able to receive a copy from me via snail mail if you agree on a suitable barter. I'm very lenient, it is simply that since I pay for postage and packing, and that my time is limited, I like to get something in return.
Things accepted: Scans of ephemera (photos, postcards, magazines, etc.) , copies of patterns, soundbytes of vintage vinyl. Ask!
Please let these barters be from the 50's or older.
If you have questions about a possible barter or anything, email me.
This idea was borrowed from the original Free Pattern Exchange in the La Couturiere Parisienne Site. It is a wonderful site, and if you do not find what you are looking for here, there is a good chance you will find it there.
