The girls over at
Sew Mama Sew! have organized another give away day! It sounds like fun, so I'm joining in. I debated making something for the give away, then decided against it. I have some vintage patterns up for grabs instead. I have two patterns that I'm giving away separately. The first one is Simplicity 4298.
I'm sorry I don't know the date of the pattern. It is size 14, with a 34 inch bust. This is a cut pattern, but all the pieces are accounted for! The second pattern is Simplicity 4417, size 2.
These aren't pics of the actual patterns, but pics I found on the web. The envelops are in similar condition though.
To enter my give away, just leave me a comment, telling me your favorite sewing project, and which one,(or both)of the patterns you are interested in! (it would make me very happy if you became a follower too!) Winners will be chosen in a random draw on May 23, and winners will be posted here. I will ship internationally! Good luck everyone, and I look forward to hearing about your favorite projects!
I love making quilts, but am excited to start on patterns for clothes - it'll be nice to have something to tell me what to do. :)
ReplyDeletei'm just getting back into dressmaking after a long break - at the moment i'm making the tunic from the weekend sewing book!!

I am only just learning to sew but I dream of being able to make gorgeous quilts! I also want to be able to make my own clothes as well, id love to give the dress at the top a whirl.

I would love to work on Simplicity 4298. My favourite sewing project is a dress from a vintage pattern I'm working on now- my very first attempt to make something from a vintage pattern!
ReplyDeletelooove to win that dress pattern, I was looking exactly for something like this to sew! Thanks for hosting this giveaway! sophie(at)bleuvanille<dot"com
ReplyDeleteI love that dress, it would be a winner for summer evenings with the alpaca cardigan I am knitting right now :) My favorit sewing project is a handsewn cover made of heagons for a little chair. It's made of reds and greens and makes me really happy.
ReplyDeleteWow what a great giveaway! I am really into vintage things and love the older patterns. The child's pattern is darling. I love making quilts. Thanks for participating in SMS giveaway day. And thanks for entering me!
ReplyDeleteI love making little girl dresses and skirts and I would love the first pattern. I would look so suzi homemaker in it!
ReplyDeleteI collect these suckers and love to sew from them. Those are two cute ones. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI've been on a quilting kick lately, it's a great excuse to hoard more and more new fabrics, but the end results are pretty awesome too! I just finished a lap quilt for myself, and I love cozying underneath it while watching tv.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway, I'd love the Simplicity 4298 pattern!
Love these patterns! The dresses are my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteI would love the 4298 pattern and although I love making quilts a lot, due to the lack of sewing time I mostly make little projects like skirts or bags...
ReplyDeleteI love makking clothes for my daughter, so you can guess which pattern I would choose if I won! Thanks for the great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI would be thrilled to win either one of these! I'm still worn out from our moving halfway across the country. We have only been in our new home for less than a week.
ReplyDeleteMy tip would be to make sure to use plenty of bubble wrap and mark boxes well even if you think you will be able to remember that you tucked certain things in with something else.
Blessings on your move and I hope you will love your new home!

Both patterns are sensational! My favourite sewing project is usually the one I've just finished. But I've made up couple of dresses from re-issued "vintage" patterns, and recently old maternity patterns of my mother's, that are my faves.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry I happened to add the moving bit to the wrong comment. That's what happens when I have more than one window open.
ReplyDeleteOoh . . . I'm loving the kids clothes pattern!
ReplyDeleteHow do I pin down a fave sewing project? I love to try so many different things. Stuffies are a pain sometimes, but they are so ultra satisfying when they are done (especially when the special little person who receives them gives em a big ole hug!)

I LOVE vintage patterns and the kids' pattern is the perfect size for my little one!
ReplyDeleteFavorite sewing projects are dresses for my daughter. I can't pick just one. I love them all. My pattern choice is the kids' pattern. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteninjaeema at aol dot com
YEAH!! The dress pattern is my size. I love vintage and would love this!

So far my favourite sewing project is my English paper pieced hexagon quilt. It's far from being a complete quilt top, but very relaxing to cut out some scraps and stitch them up!
ReplyDeleteI would love the dress pattern, 4298! I just recently have gotten into sewing, but my favorite project so far would be a messenger bag that I take with me everywhere :D
ReplyDeletesnyde30@mail.lcc.edu
I am interested in both patterns! That dress is fabulous, and I've been meaning to make some vintage style dresses for our anniversary cruise!
ReplyDeleteOoh love a vintage pattern! Dress would be perfect for me, and the dungarees for my little toddler :)
ReplyDeleteFave projects are upcycling and refashioning thrifted clothes - satisfying and cheap!
OOh yeah!! Love me a vintage pattern :)
ReplyDeleteDress for me, dungarees for the toddler - awesome.
Fave projects are upcycling and refashioning thrifted clothes and fabric. Satisfying and cheap!
Any time I am working on a quilt--that is my favorite sewing project! I'd love to have that first dress pattern; I love the style from that era. And size 14? Well, sizes have morphed over the years, and I am very curious as to what size that would be in today's terms!
ReplyDeleteI love the kids pattern!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome! Crossing my fingers!

Thanks for the chance to win! I would love to win the baby pattern. My best friend just welcomed her daughter into the world last night!
ReplyDeleterobobritt at gmail.com
Oh my! I can't decide. I have a little girl who will fit into a size 2 very soon and I am a size 14. So I'd have to say I'd be happy to win either of these two patterns. :)
ReplyDeleteOh these are neat! I especially like the childrens clothing pattern.
ReplyDeleteThanks,

My favourite sewing project is a bag I made for a mate a few weeks agon, which I have on my blog, it's a bag with a likeness of herself breastfeeding her daughter on it.

I gearing up to make my first quilt! I love both patterns although I have to say the children's one would be best as I have been looking for a good overall pattern for my son...

ReplyDeleteThanks,

ReplyDeleteI'm deeply impressed.
Kind regards from Germany

My Favorite sewing project was my first blouse, because it was the first outfit I make that wearable (usually the project finished so bad that I can't wear it).
ReplyDeleteI choose the baby pattern, my kid is 2 years old and I think she will look adorable with that jumper.
And I follow your blog.
Thanks for this great giveaway!

That dress looks just like what my grandmother wore in the 50's - she made all her own clothes, so I'd bet that she might have made it from that pattern. I'd love to be able to make my own and show up at her house to surprise her!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite sewing project was the little quilt I mostly made when I was 13 - my grandmother helped me finish it, and I still treasure it!
michaelacking(at)gmail(dot)com
I love making art dolls, that is my favorite sewing project! I would choose the top pattern - the woman's dresses! I love those ones!
ReplyDeleteI am working on pajamas for my boys. I love the kids pattern.
ReplyDeleteThe kids pattern! I'm just now starting to sew for my kids.
ReplyDeleteI really like the first pattern. I dabble in sewing, mostly quilts. But I've been trying to get up the courage to attempt clothing. I think I just need to dive right in!
ReplyDeleteI would love the Simplicity 4298 pattern. I've been wanting to make an Audrey Hepburn (Breakfast at Tiffany's) kind of dress.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite project right now is quilting, but I'm also going to be making my daughter a dress this week. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love the kids pattern!
thanks for the chance!

I'd like to try the first pattern - love women's vintage dresses! Thanks for the great giveaway! luscofamily(at)ortelco.net
ReplyDeleteI really like the vintage women's dress pattern and my size, too! Thanks for the great giveaway! luscofamily(at)ortelco.net
ReplyDeleteohh i can't choose. i love both patterns so much!!! it would be a fantastic way to start sewing some clothes like i have been planning to. i am a fanatic of dresses and i would love to make one for me. i never seem to find the time to make something for me, for a change...
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage women's pattern. I would like to dress in 50's dresses until my children won't let me.
ReplyDeleteI love that women's dress pattern! the best things for me to sew are little accessories - zipper pouches and headbands, etc.
ReplyDeleteI like the second one! I have an interest in children's clothes since I'm a mother of a near 4 year old!
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining sew mama sew give away and offering us these awesome patterns. I love the baby/children pattern. My fav projects to sew are my cell phone/iphone cozies, lovethose things.

What a great giveaway. I like both patterns. There is something about vintage clothes!
ReplyDeleteamyross06 at gmail dot com
What a fantastic give away! I hope I will be the lucky winner! (Im interested of both patterns) :-)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite sewing project....well I have to say that that is to make clothes to my girls, 2 and 4 years old. The 4 year old really apprichiates everything she gets so its great fun to sew her something.
I love vintage sewing patterns and have just started collecting them. Much as I love the first pattern, I doubt I'd fit it, so I'm going to throw my hat into the ring for the second one, as I love making kids' clothes with a vintage flair!

ReplyDeletei luv to try a girl dress..n maybe a dress to me.. t want... good luck to me..
ReplyDeletenisa0112@yahoo.co.uk
My son needs new dungarees so the 2nd pattern would be perfect! I love vintage patterns - its so lovely to make clothes that aren't "trendy" and know that you are wearing a one off.
ReplyDeleteI've followed you on google reader.
Thanks for the chance to win.
That dress pattern is divine. Of course, I'm currently pregnant and will probably breastfeed for the next year or so and won't be able to wear such a beautiful dress, but I love it anyway. So elegant! My favourite sewing project is anything that is useful. I can't put that much time and energy into something that I haven't got a specific purpose for. I guess that why I haven't yet done any quilting, though I would really like to!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite project is a reversible sundress for my daughter. Love those patterns!
ReplyDeleteAt the moment I like to make quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love both of the patterns--thanks for the great giveaway!!!
fun!
ReplyDeleteI love making bags the most recent is the duffle bag by Cherie (found on sew mama sew). Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeletesimply.simon.sisters(at)gmail.com
If I win I would prefer the second one with the kids' clothes.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite sewing project so far ... I think one of the dresses I made for my daughter. I have not done that many sewing projects yet though.
I like the kids pattern!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
They are both adorable. My favorite sewing projects are aprons. Quick to finish, and lots of room for creativity.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the kids patterns, and my favorite things to sew are little zippered pouches made with vintage fabrics!
ReplyDeletethanks!

ReplyDeleteI love to sew clothes, and I would love to make a retro dress for me !
ReplyDeleteI love making quilts and things for decorating the house...
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make me a nice dress...
:-)
oh fun! I think my favorite sewing project is whatever I'm working on at the time. I'm super critical of my work, so many times once something is finished I'm not that happy with it...trying to work on that!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite sewing project so far has been my book pillow, I think. The dress pattern is really cool!
ReplyDeleteI'd have to go for the ladies' dress... Love the poofy skirt! :)
