Please pick me! I've come to realize that the 70s are my favorite decade and not just because I was an innocent, wide-eyed child during those decadent days.
ReplyDeleteBobbi - Me too! I was Jr. High/High School in the 70's. There are a lot of great styles. My older sister was going to discos so many of the dresses remind me of her. Me - I was wearing Gauchos, cowboy boots, cowl neck sweaters!
DeleteWow! So many great patterns and notions, and I love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteFeelin' Groovy....my mom used many of those same patterns! I remember arguing with her about miniskirts and wearing vests with no blouse (She won both arguments, of course).
ReplyDeleteGood luck to all who enter.
I wouldn't have asked! Our school had a no bare midriff dress code - no skin between pants and top at all.
DeleteMy prime! My very talented Mom made all of my clothes, including my wedding gown. She observed my school's conservative dress code for me with taste and flair. Still love the styles and patterns.
DeleteWell I was born in 78 so diapers lol!
ReplyDeleteThat means that your mother was wearing these fashions!
DeleteWhat a fun haul for somebody! I especially love those groovy fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI do love the 1970s styles and prints!! :) Fabulous!!

ReplyDeleteDebby
I learned to sew in the '70's and I have been sewing ever since. Last year I connected with a charity that goes to Guatemala to dig wells for the poorest of the poor. They also build schools and homes. I volunteered last year for 8 days and taught sewing to some teenaged girls and some older women. They learned to make aprons, slips and pencil skirts with an elastic waistband. I was so excited with the experience that I am leaving next week to go for 30 days! These patterns and fabrics would be great for the girls in Guatemala, the colours and styles would go over with a bang! My goal is to help them learn to sew well enough to set up their own company to sew school uniforms and clothes for the people on their mountain that would allow them independence from men and give them confidence and value, something they currently do not have.
ReplyDeleteThank you for considering me.... for the girls.

P.S. I am a Canadian.... I hope this offer is open to us too!
DeleteBecause of legal complications, I can only offer it to US Addresses :(
DeleteBorn in 1978 so I'd love to win
ReplyDeletea kid n teen of the 70's! bell bottoms n hiphuggers, ponchos, tie dye...loved the 70's!! :)
ReplyDeleteI remember the 70s. It definitely was a different era. I love the fabrics. I would love to win this so I can make my grandchildren things as I am on a fixed income and can't really afford to buy fabrics all the time. Thanks for having this contest.
ReplyDeleteI remember brightly colored, polyester bell bottoms contrasted with flow-y sundresses with wide, white lace. Mom also made me some adorable jumpers and then she'd embroider flowers on them to make them extra cute!
ReplyDeleteas a 1974 grad who sewed most of her own clothes, I remember these patterns well! And I still have those gloves!
ReplyDeleteirisdodd@hotmail.com
As a 1970 graduate, began the decade in bell bottoms, hot pants, crop tops, and hip huggers; finished the decade in maternity clothes.
ReplyDeleteBoy, this takes me back to when I learned to sew! Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI was born in 1983, but I'd love to win this far out giveaway. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBorn in 1953 I am a flower child
ReplyDeleteOMG. I think I was wearing a dress make with one of those patterns and the orangey flowery knit fabric!
ReplyDeleteI was in Junior High School in the early 1970s. I remember wearing hip-hugger bell bottom jeans. I also remember wearing a patchwork suede skirt to 7th grade -- oh, and green eye shadow!
ReplyDeleteI had a patchwork suede skirt! I was born in '62 so I was in Jr. High in the mid 70's. I remember a pair of pants - hip huggers made from wide multi color seersuker vertical stripe bell bottoms.
Deleteas a "child of the 70's" I would love to win a contest like this. I still gravitate towards hot colors and tie dye when I look for fabric
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.....I was wearing chemin de fers & dittos in a variety of colors! Oh & platform shoes (I still have my favorite pair). I would absolutely love, love, love to win!
ReplyDeleteI was wearing bell bottoms,headbands pretty much what is in now.,lol
ReplyDeleteI was very young during the 70's. But I loved my burnt orange culottes. I also loved the wide collared silky (polyester, I'm sure) horse print blouse in browns and cream. It was a special dress up day when I got to wear that!
ReplyDeleteI graduated from high school in 1977. I have fond memories of sewing with my mother in the 70s. In many ways it seems just like yesterday. I especially love the floral print on blue and the square within a square fabric. Thank you for the walk down memory lane and the chance to win such a "cool" giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI remember the 70's well. There were bell bottom jeans, bandannas, granny squares, head bands, tie die everything, moccasins, ponchos, fringe - lots of fringe, vests, tin can rollers for that long straight hair, embroidered shirts, bell shaped sleeves, long beads, flowers in our hair, long skirts, and the music! I graduated in 1970 and got married in 1973. Budgets were tight back then and you had to "make do"; so many of our clothes and household things were, sewn, crocheted, or crafted out of necessity and for some of us the joy of doing it. A lot has happened since then, two children, a house, and a wonderful husband for 42 years. But sewing and crafting has followed me right into retirement and I still do it for the joy of it. I am hoping you pick because for some of us those truly were "the days"; so I now sew Retro patterns for myself, my daughter and myself. It seems many of the fashions of the 70's have come back! And I'm loving it! But just like the 70's retirement has made things tight and that means having to cut back even on sewing. So I am hoping you pick me so I can keep on sewing into a ripe old age!
ReplyDeleteI wore minis, maxis and lots of jeans in the early part of the 70s; mostly jeans at the end of the decade because I worked in a lab.I'd love to share the patterns and fabric with my daughter who sews too.
ReplyDeleteTakes me to way back when,I would love to take my 13 year old grandaughter back to the GOOD OL' DAYS with this wonderful nostalgic prize!!! Good luck everyone.....especially the Hippies at Heart,we all know that you are out there!!
ReplyDeleteTakes me to way back when,I would love to take my 13 year old grandaughter back to the GOOD OL' DAYS with this wonderful nostalgic prize!!! Good luck everyone.....especially the Hippies at Heart,we all know that you are out there!!
ReplyDeleteI was a hippie of those days!! Peace signs, granny glasses, love beads---ahhh, those were the days.
DeleteI'll tell ya what I was wearing: almost 100% of my clothes were sewn by my mom, who was also amazing at remaking/upcycling items into stuff for my sister & me. She also crocheted lots of hats, scarves, vests, sweaters, etc. for us. Those were some groovy, wildly-colored times. Thanks for the giveaway! :-)
ReplyDeleteNot sure how my comment, above, came out as anonymous, 'cause I'm not!
DeleteI was born in 84, but everything 70s came back when I was in junior high
ReplyDeletespgoddess55(at)msn(dot)com
My favorite outfit was a pair of red, white and blue striped bell bottoms that I wore with a white turtleneck! I was born in '65 so I enjoyed the 70's! Thanks for this chance!
ReplyDeleteI wore smock tops, Hash Jeans, and wedge leather strap platform wooden heel sandals. Some of those styles have come back. They call the smock tops tunics now.
ReplyDeleteI sure wish high waist jeans would come back, real tired of seeing cracks! :-)
Born in 1964. But I remember loving to wear Bell Bottom pants, Flowered Body suits and my Apple hat. The same one the Jackson 5 had on their heads. So hip!
ReplyDeleteWow! 70's... I was wearing overalls.....lots of bandanas....bell bottoms!!
ReplyDeleteYolanda v
I graduated HS in '72 and all these patterns look very familiar! Love the fabric too. I have a granddaughter that would like some clothes made out of this giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI've got to admit I only caught the last 2 years of the decade, but apparently they stuck with me. My wardrobe (and pattern stash!) is slowly becoming all 70's all the time.
ReplyDeletegreat wardrobe ideas
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun give away!
ReplyDeleteHip hugging bell bottoms with a wide red belt. Sigh....I was SO cool!

Oh, I remember bell bottoms very well. Loved them. I always made pants that were mostly straight and then had a 4 inch fabric ruffle on the bottom. I loved those pants!!
DeleteI was in grade school in the 70s and I remember my favorite pair of navy pants that had flowers embroidered on them from the hem up the legs - I thought I looked awesome in them - LOL

ReplyDeleteOh crap, i clicked "submit" before I read the question! Well, I was born in the 80's so I think the question was somethign about what I wore in the 70's.... my mom on the other hand would have been wearing brown toned dresses and big sunglasses :).
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! I remember these patterns; still have a few hidden away and still love them. There were some great styles. And I remember lots of polyester! I made a lot of my clothes then, dresses, skirts and blouses. What fun!
ReplyDeleteHi, what a great giveaway. My granny was teaching me how to sew and quilt and other needle work about that time. I also wore bell bottoms and men's high heel shoes. That was a great time for me got out of school; in 72. Thanks for a chance to win this great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun question! I was wearing anything really short and/or bright colored. I was high school/college/young married and finally a mom by 1978.
ReplyDeleteI was wearing my bell bottom jeans. I liked the big bells! I wore those with a baby doll top, or a great embroidered shirt from India, or maybe a button down shirt with a nice wide collar, haha! I loved my clothes in the Seventies!
ReplyDeleteThis Giveaway sounds perfect for you!!
