The Downloads Section is Bigger & Better… but the Best is Yet to Come

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Phew!!

I have just finished a massive upload and restructuring of the Downloads section. This was “Phase II” of the security and software upgrades to this site.

You will notice that there are a couple of new sections …

  1. The International Craft Magazine Stand
    1. I have scanned the covers, table of contents, and designs within many of my personal magazines. I have an extensive collection, and the Vintage area is not well represented … yet.
    2. There are many collections not represented yet, i.e “Filatura Di Crosa”, “Burda”, “Patrones”, “Mrs. Stylebook”, “Lady Boutique”, etc, etc … They will be there, eventually.
    3. These are not magazines I’m offering for sale, they are simply here to inspire you with design ideas, or to research a particular back issue.
  2. Free Vintage Knit & Crochet Patterns
    1. As the title suggests, these are patterns that are no longer under copyright therefore I can provide them to you for free.
    2. On the menu for this area is Minerva and possibly Vogue Knitting book. I need to look into the status of these first. This area is still under construction.

Please note that hotlinking is no longer supported via the new security. Sorry.

So go ahead, download and enjoy.

Mrs. Stylebook Sloper Download

Monday, May 28th, 2007

I’ve scanned the sloper from the Mrs. Stylebook 2007 issue.�

Here’s how to download

  1. Decide your size (there is 77-89 or 89-104).�� These are by bust measurement, in centimeters.
  2. Go to this album and click on the image for the size you need
  3. Now you have two options
    1. In the upper right hand corner, there is an “image size” option.� Pick�the larger�size, then right click and select “save item as”.
    2. or you can select the “download this in .zip” link in the description.
  4. Take the image to Kinko’s, or wherever, and have them plot it out for you.

Happy Sewing!!
