For all you time travelers, here is a comprehensive list of some of the best vintage pattern sites on the web. I've done the homework to find out which sites are offering the best variety, quality and cheapest deals in vintage patterns.
1. 50's Dress Patterns
SoVintagePatterns.com
The 50's had a lot of sweet clothes, sure, but let's just say I got a little caught up on the dresses. The dresses of the 50's haven't seen a revisit in everyday fashion yet, so finding these designs in your local fabric store can be an impossibility.
These patterns are the real deal, from the golden age of poodle skirts and high-neck collars.
2. 60's Sewing Patterns
Abracadabra Vintage Clothing
The lovin' 60's were full of style that that was blatantly different from the decade before. Hemlines shot up, waists were no longer required to be cinched, and there were even those fabled paper dresses.
3. 70's Sewing Patterns
The Rusty Zipper
Polyester, safari suits and gold fringe. The 70's sure were an experimental time for everyone's wardrobe. Dip back into the swinging 70's with these patterns that recall the funk of disco. I've found the best sites for the job.
