ONLY ONE SIZE- Size 2- Breast 21"

At this time the pattern is only available in size 2. The sizing is unchanged from the period pattern source and may require some alterations for modern sizing.



- Difficulty -

Intermediate difficulty. Instructions are original to the time period and are somewhat minimal compared with today. Should be familiar with garment construction and be adventurous to try vintage techniques.



- Yardage Requirements-
Please see images. Allow extra for matching patterns, fabrics with a nap, or directional prints.


-Additional Notes-

Because this was based on a period original, a mock up is HIGHLY SUGGESTED. Test construction and fit on your unique figure before cutting into your fashion fabric.
The pattern shapes are unchanged from the period source, in order to keep historical accuracy. Some alterations may be required, as the pattern has not been tested for fit, construction, or truing. Please make a mock up first and save your pretty fabric for the final garment!



--HOW TO PRINT AND USE THIS E-PATTERN--
This includes both a tiled, print at home pattern, and an A0 file to send away to a print shop like Pattern Printing Co.

YOU WILL NEED ADOBE READER, A FREE PDF READER PROGRAM, IN ORDER TO OPEN AND PRINT THIS PATTERN.


This pattern is formatted for USA Letter Size and A4 sized paper. You will need to print this pattern to 100% scale. Open the "READ-ME-FIRST" File for instructions on printing and piecing your pattern.

This pattern is tiled into letter sized paper. This pattern file is formatted to fit on both sizes of paper, and there will be varying thicknesses of white border, which will be cut off, according to pattern instructions.

You will print these documents on your home printer, cut, and tape them together, to form a larger pattern layout. Then you cut and use your pattern just as you would a normal home sewing pattern.

This pattern comes in a ZIP folder that must be decompressed to use, and uses a LOT of paper.



About Wearing History Resto-Vival™ Patterns



Resto-Vival™ Patterns are original historic patterns that have been restored and revived. Original patterns are usually available only in single sizes, precut from tissue paper and totally unprinted, with details like grainlines and darts indicated only by small perforations. Resto-Vival™ patterns are printed on sturdy bond paper instead of tissue and clearly marked with drawn and labeled markings. These markings aid the modern sewer in understanding the markings of the original pattern and the construction of the garment. Resto-Vival™ patterns follow the period shapes of the original patterns, maintaining the historical accuracy of the completed garment. Original period instructions are included. These instructions are text only (unless otherwise noted) and fairly minimal, especially compared to instructions for modern patterns. At least an intermediate knowledge of dressmaking and a good familiarity with pattern construction is suggested. You may choose to have a modern or period sewing book handy to help with basic construction methods that the pattern instructions do not cover in detail. Also, fitting a muslin mockup is strongly recommended, as all garments were meant to be worn over period foundation garments or corsetry.

Insanely great jeans for the price!
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 12, Color: Medium Blue Vintage
I’m obsessed with these jeans. They’re comfortable and I think they legitimately look great. I had a baby 6 months ago and my body is “in transition” so I didn’t want to buy anything too expensive. These are cute, fit well, good quality. Excellent for short girls - I’m 5’ tall and they’re exactly the right length for a full-length jean. I feel like they’re fashionable without being too trendy (they work for 30somethings as well as 20somethings). They’re nice thick cotton with very little stretch. Because of that I’d be conservative with sizing because they do stretch significantly when you wear them. I got these in the lighter blue, too. The darker wash is slightly smaller and I wound up liking the color better, too. But the light wash is nice.

Surprising good - great quality for price.
Special Size: Wide Leg, Size: 6, Color: Ecru
These are great for the price. They run a little wide in the waist so I sized down from an 8 to a 6 and they fit perfect. They are a true wide leg - so don’t buy if you are looking for something more straight leg or flair. The quality of the denim is very nice. I’m actually surprised and the quality. These do not feel stretchy which is good for the style. Very happy. Hopefully they hold up after washing

Excellant value
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 14, Color: Rinse, Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 14, Color: Rinse
Purchased the “cropped” length. I am 5ft 3.5 inch. Weight 170lbs (42 inch hip/38 inch waist) normally wear a size 10/12 or 31 in jeans, depending on the brand. I ordered up at 14 for these based on other reviewers. (When held up to other jeans they were the same as a Talbots 10 at the waist) Prewash they felt good, a little big& length hit at the top of my foot. After wash and dry, the fit was almost perfect and the length was at lower ankle. Ordering up is probably the right choice, although I think I could have been comfortable in a 12 (with no drying). They are a tad bit too long for a “cropped” look IMO. The wide leg is a true wide leg and falls straight from the waist. The material is heavy and there is almost no give/stretch - so a traditional denim. This is the dark blue and it is a true dark blue. You can’t beat the price, excellent value.

Cropped ones are better, size issue with full length pants
Special Size: Wide Leg, Size: 18, Color: Authentic Medium Wash
These are very small in the waist and about 8 inches too long (and I'm not even that short). Very well constructed though so I'll keep them on hand as I'm on a weight loss journey. These were an 18 and fit more like a larger 14. The cropped ones are AWESOME. I ordered a second pair in a different color. They fit absolutely perfectly and hit me around the ankle length wise. Adore them.

GET THESE JEANS!!
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 12, Color: Iced Blue Light Wash, Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 12, Color: Iced Blue Light Wash
I ordered these jeans because they were recommended by a youtube influencer and I have 0 regrets! They are a fairly heavy denim with just the right amount of stretch to them. I'd consider them to be mid to high waisted since the closure is right below my belly button. However, if I hike them up a bit they sit right above the belly button. I washed and dried them with little to no shrinkage. Length-wise they're slightly cropped on me, and fall right above the ankle. These jeans are honestly SO versatile because they look great with ballet flats, heels, tennis shoes, AND suede or leather ankle boots! Since I couldn't decide, I ordered them in two colors (iced blue light wash & medium blue vintage), and I love them both!! For reference, I'm 5'6 and 170 lbs. I ordered size 12 and they fit great. Highly recommend. You CANNOT beat the price for this level of quality in my opinion!!
