Date: 7/31/12 4:56 PM oh okay. now I rember. I liked number one as in a tiered dress but I do NOT like the waist line or neckline.
for number 2 I love the greco syle draping but not the extreme gathers ruight under the bust. thats why I wanted to find a similar pattern. |

Date: 8/1/12 7:21 PM Go to ETSY and check out their vintage patterns from the 60s, and 70s; I've often seen similar styles to these there. Be careful on pattern sizes though; there's been changes since those periods of time. |
