Complete 1956 German sewing pattern drafting book containing 200+ vintage sewing patterns for post war era fashions for women, men, and children. These styles are to die for - everything from wedding dresses and lingerie to bathing suits and tailored coats. I wish there was space to post pictures of all the patterns in the book… what you see only scratches the surface!

A special ruler and curve (included) are used along with the miniature templates in the book to create a good range of sizes for each garment. The women's models, for example, can be drafted to fit a bust measurement from 80 - 120 cm (roughly 31.5" - 47.5"), with some models even a little larger.

The book is in German, but instructions in English are included in their own PDF. The system is similar to Lutterloh, The Golden Rule, or Der Golden Schnitt and is very easy to work with. There are also plenty of instructional Youtube videos out there that are helpful for those unfamiliar with the process.

*Please note: the pattern templates as well as the ruler and curve must all be printed at actual size for the drafting system to work properly.

This instant download digital pattern comes with a bonus PDF entitled Working with Vintage Sewing Patterns which includes helpful information on taking accurate measurements and resizing.

Wonderful depiction of the city & finding gratitude
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book after moving my young family from SF to a very homogeneous suburb. Rode MUNI with my kids & at the time didn’t realize how diversity is taught passively when it’s all around you. Fast forward, my kiddo makes a comment in preschool that shocks me & realize that she’s now in such a bubble. This book is clearly nostalgic for me, but for my kids it’s a chance to talk about all the different lives people live. A chance to talk about race, culture, homelessness, privilege (riding the bus instead of a car, not having a music player), people with disabilities, etc. To those who choose to post about the grammar In this book, good authors work very hard on depicting dialects, which are 100% a part of one’s culture. Take the opportunity to discuss the diversity that exists in language too. My goodness, white people from Boston add & delete Rs like crazy (Cubar instead of Cuba, ca’ instead of car). 🙃

Great story and wonderful pictures
I’ve been trying to find books my son (6) would enjoy reading. He's asked me to read this one to him every night for like a week now. It’s a sweet story and the illustrations are beautiful. I’m really glad I bought it.

Award Winning Teaching Book
Format: Hardcover
This story has a lovely story that is a great teaching moment for young children. I enjoyed the illustrations and I find these stories about real life situations of other people in other circumstances other than your own offer great teaching moments for the young readers....Recommend you read it to your young children and it gives you a good opportunity to explain to your children that even those who have much less than you do....but, have love and family are wealthy in their own way....and to express all types of families exist and are all just as important and your individual family is to you. Important that they are getting more books out that offer important lessons about life to young people...to grow their empathy for others...and caring feelings for others from a young age. Recommend
