ONLY ONE SIZE- Size 2- Breast 21"

At this time the pattern is only available in size 2. The sizing is unchanged from the period pattern source and may require some alterations for modern sizing.



- Difficulty -

Intermediate difficulty. Instructions are original to the time period and are somewhat minimal compared with today. Should be familiar with garment construction and be adventurous to try vintage techniques.



- Yardage Requirements-
Please see images. Allow extra for matching patterns, fabrics with a nap, or directional prints.


-Additional Notes-

Because this was based on a period original, a mock up is HIGHLY SUGGESTED. Test construction and fit on your unique figure before cutting into your fashion fabric.
The pattern shapes are unchanged from the period source, in order to keep historical accuracy. Some alterations may be required, as the pattern has not been tested for fit, construction, or truing. Please make a mock up first and save your pretty fabric for the final garment!



--HOW TO PRINT AND USE THIS E-PATTERN--
This includes both a tiled, print at home pattern, and an A0 file to send away to a print shop like Pattern Printing Co.

YOU WILL NEED ADOBE READER, A FREE PDF READER PROGRAM, IN ORDER TO OPEN AND PRINT THIS PATTERN.


This pattern is formatted for USA Letter Size and A4 sized paper. You will need to print this pattern to 100% scale. Open the "READ-ME-FIRST" File for instructions on printing and piecing your pattern.

This pattern is tiled into letter sized paper. This pattern file is formatted to fit on both sizes of paper, and there will be varying thicknesses of white border, which will be cut off, according to pattern instructions.

You will print these documents on your home printer, cut, and tape them together, to form a larger pattern layout. Then you cut and use your pattern just as you would a normal home sewing pattern.

This pattern comes in a ZIP folder that must be decompressed to use, and uses a LOT of paper.



About Wearing History Resto-Vival™ Patterns



Resto-Vival™ Patterns are original historic patterns that have been restored and revived. Original patterns are usually available only in single sizes, precut from tissue paper and totally unprinted, with details like grainlines and darts indicated only by small perforations. Resto-Vival™ patterns are printed on sturdy bond paper instead of tissue and clearly marked with drawn and labeled markings. These markings aid the modern sewer in understanding the markings of the original pattern and the construction of the garment. Resto-Vival™ patterns follow the period shapes of the original patterns, maintaining the historical accuracy of the completed garment. Original period instructions are included. These instructions are text only (unless otherwise noted) and fairly minimal, especially compared to instructions for modern patterns. At least an intermediate knowledge of dressmaking and a good familiarity with pattern construction is suggested. You may choose to have a modern or period sewing book handy to help with basic construction methods that the pattern instructions do not cover in detail. Also, fitting a muslin mockup is strongly recommended, as all garments were meant to be worn over period foundation garments or corsetry.

Great Light Weight String Trimmer and Edger!
Style: String Trimmer
I'm a 60 year old female and bought this because of the light weight. It was easy to put together, however, the instructions that came with it were terrible. It included only black and white images, with no written instruction. I found a great tutorial on YouTube that told how to assemble it and use it, and another on how to change the string. Buy extra string, so you'll have it ready! It does a great job on weeds and ivy. The edger is great. It is adjustable, but probably not the best for anyone taller than 5'6. It's noisy, but not so bad that it requires ear protection. I like that it's corded which makes it lighter and I don't have to fool with gas or heavy batteries.

Great weed wacker!
Style: String Trimmer
BLACK+DECKER Weed Wacker with Auto Feed, corded 14-Inch 2 in 1 String Trimmer Lawn Edger, Powerful 6.5-Amp. I recently purchased this trimmer and really like it. It took less than a minute to set up, and the adjustable height and handle make it very comfortable to use. It easily rotates between a string trimmer and a wheeled edger for clean lawn borders. I did go through two spools of line for 7,000 sq. ft. of grass, but for the price, it’s a very impressive tool.

Serves its purpose-EDIT
Style: String Trimmer
Experience as of 8/1/24 Pros: ease of use, weight, power, price point. Cons: There is no way to get out of spending a fortune on string. Manufacturer defect why this is so cheap & discontinued. Shame on them. I've tried everything in my unknowledgeable unprofessional experience. Silicone spray lube does help & plastic core has to be in like new condition - not even slight wearing. I've bought hardcore string, still rolls out too fast & gets stuck a lot because motor can't handle & tends to heat up string which causes it to bind. I've tried removing auto feed lever & auto cutter, worse. Kept past 30 days & tinkering voids my warranty. If $ spent on buying exorbitant amounts of string is not a concern, everything else is perfect. I have an old B&D from the early 2000s still kicking grass. I just hate batteries. So I can either buy a new weed whacker or buy batteries. 3.75 stars Pros: Great power even with 200 ft cord (use proper cords). Works quickly & efficiently & powerful. The edger works outstanding. Used around chain fencing hard rocks & blacktop. Normal to high grass up to 12 in. adjustable Lightweight & easy to operate for a 62yo 5'2" female. Cons: using electric cord was a pain for me but once get used to it no matter. The string automatically feeds but extremely fast. I believe it has to do with where & what you're up against. Many many times I had to stop & adjust the string roll. I found if ur careful about inserting properly & hearing the click it works better but again if you're operating under more than moderate conditions it seems to stick more & you have to adjust. That seems to be a design flaw in manufacturers use of cheaper materials. The string it comes with is extremely short & runs out quickly. Based on other correct reviews I bought a B&D refill 3pack. Not the best either. I used all 3 rolls in 2.5 rounds of 1/4 acre back yard (hard conditions) & 1/8 acre front yard & blacktop edging. Better off buying bulk cheaper $ & restringing roll cores. I believe this also has to do with conditions of use and the B&D string is not any stronger than discount string. I purchased a bulk tougher string & will see if there's any difference in quantity usage. This is not the best but not the worst. There are hardly any corded options for weed eaters but I was determined to stay with corded option because batteries are so unreliable these days. Product still a good value for the price. Disclaimer only sporadically using battery weed eaters a few years.

Great edger for home use
This WORX 12 Amp Electric Lawn Edger did exactly what I needed it to do. It was easy to use, had plenty of power for cleaning up the edges around my driveway and sidewalk, and gave the yard a much cleaner, finished look. I like that it is corded because I do not have to worry about batteries dying, and it has enough power for regular homeowner use. The first pass took a little extra time since the edges needed cleaned up, but once I got going, it worked great. Overall, this is a solid edger/trencher for the price, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting cleaner lawn edges without dealing with gas.
