McCall's 9276 Sharp as a Tack Skirt 1953 with lovely crescent pockets. Someone really took care of this pattern as the envelope is in lovely condition which is a rare thing. And never used - completely uncut. Who could resist?
Speaking of old patterns I'm often sad about the condition of the pieces when
counting them so did some Googling and found this site: How to Repair Sewing Pattern Envelopes, Instruction Sheets and Pattern Pieces which has everything I need to know and should come in handy for all of you. I don't do any "repairing" by taping or pinning or duplicating or even ironing (I don't iron - if it's not wash and wear I don't buy it or make it). I believe buyers should do that if they desire. If there are any problems with the pieces I say so - no surprises!
