I thought I would share with you my purchases. The newest pattern from the past was a skirt from 2007.
It is not a pattern that I have been searching for; the style just appealed to me and decided to add to my cart.
Here is a pant pattern from the 70's and the flare style is make an appearance more and more.
I just purchased a Simplicity flare pant pattern with a jacket and skirt included. It will be interesting to compare the two patterns.
Here is a knit pattern that appealed to me probably because of the pink/orange combination of one to the tops and I keep seeing those colors in lipsticks such as Zac Posen's new release for MAC Cosmetics.

I also selected a skirt pattern based upon a few skirts I have saved to Pinterest
And the last one to show you is a 1967 Stretch and Sew Pattern. The pattern envelope leaves a lot to be desired. I began sewing around this time and I know that my grandmother nor I ever used of S&S patterns. I actually bought my first one in the '90's while living in Florida. This particular pattern has three neckline variations; I saw them on the website but nothing reflects this on the envelope; only on the enclosed instructions. Pattern is intact, no tracing marks or anything. It sold for $1.00 in 1967.
