searching for a pattern

Aug 26, 2007 3 Replies

Help, please. I'd like to find a top pattern that was popular in the



60s-70s. The back and front are sewn together at the sides, and a necklace or chain is threaded through the seam at the neckline instead of a shoulder seam. I've looked at all the usual online sites and can not find it. My eldest DGD has developed a love for vintage clothing and I've made some for her, and thought this would be a perfect top for the FL holidays.. I have some pearls to use with it. Thanks for your help. Emily

Is it like a camisole tank top?? Would one of those work or is it more like a peasant top?

Would any of these work, with some alteration (just omit the straps and use the pearls instead)

I hope that helps.

Thanks Sharon, I will check those out and if it's one of them, I will tell you. However, I hadn't mentioned it to DD, whose daughter wants one until today. She said she has my original. I wondered where it had gone, but makes sense because she was the one who loved the style and I'd made her several when she was in school. Anyway, this weekend, they're taking the older son to college in D.C. and next week, she'll return my pattern or a copy. I don't mind getting the copy because it's going to stay in the family any way. Emily

Oh good!!!! I'm glad she had it and I'm glad the pattern is going to come home to roost. ;)
