The bolero jacket hits at the waist and has a lovely scalloped bottom and turn back cuffs. The bolero has a rounded collar and buttons up the front. This pattern is in Misses Size. Junior, Plus Size, & Petites may require alterations.

SIZE

This pattern is available in one size only.  Bust 36", waist 30", hip 39"

 

- Difficulty -

Intermediate difficulty.  Instructions are original to the time period and are somewhat minimal

 

-Size Information and Yardage Requirements-

 

For fabrics, we suggest a nice, crisp mid-weight cotton (such as quilting lengths). This also would be lovely in a linen, or even a velveteen for more formal occasions. It can also be made in a rayon challis for a cool summer dress. Don’t forget your interfacing and four buttons for the bolero! For the dress you will need one 9” zipper.

 

 

 

-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.

 

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.

EPSON OEM ink....
Style: Ink
Good overpriced Epson ink. Tried aftermarket ink, worked FINE until Epson "update".....then got notice "invalid cartridge" and the printer would not operate. Bought OEM ink and it's happy again. I'm NOT.

EPSON 822 DURABrite Ultra Ink High Capacity Black Cartridge is a great product
Style: Ink
EPSON 822 DURABrite Ultra Ink High Capacity Black Cartridge is a great product. The 822 XL size will last you a long time. The color is perfect. it fits my printer perfectly. A great product and at a great price. I received it the same day that I ordered it. I did not know that I was running out of the black. The printer sends me messages that I am running out but I ignore the message and keep on printing hundreds of papers. Do not listen to your printer just keep printing until the cartridge is completely empty!!!

Stick To The Originals
Style: Ink
Tried remanufactured and off brand cartridges and kept running into compatability issues with my Epson Work Force Pro WF-3820. These are more expensive-but they work. Have to take into consideration the fact that my printer is used for business and down time because my new cartridges aren't recognized by the printer costs $$$
