I have this pants pattern and am dying to make it. Your blog is really inspirational to me. I'm a complete novice but after years of putting up with clothes I don't really like and that don't fit me well, I'm going to start trying to recreate my beloved vintage wardrobe for my post-baby body. I too am more in love with the 40's than any other era. I'm looking forward to adding to my vintage pattern collection so that I can get started.
