I have this pattern I recently got from a charity shop and it’s super cool it’s a tennis dress pattern with the full pattern name being Misses’ Tennis Dress and Briefs and I am trying to find out what year it is from and have no idea as there is no year on the packet or instructions and it’s nowhere on the internet. I feel like it’s probably from the 60’s based on how the dresses look and also that the edge of the logo left is like that on lots of 60’s patterns I have seen although I haven’t done full research on the logo yet. I was wondering if anyone here had any ideas.
What's on your mind?

I'm having trouble finding any info about these patterns. I live in New Zealand - perhaps it is a local company. There is a facing that someone has cut out of a newspaper dated 1951.
Just Updated
So my grandma has this box of patterns I like to look through a lot because I wanna make a bunch of the stuff she has there and there are different decades of these patterns. A select few of them however are completely unfindable on the internet and oh boy trust me I have searched for them and even in archives and wiki’s they don’t appear. I’m not great with this fandom website thing but i like coming to this wiki to learn about the old patterns I find in my grandma’s box or ones I hoarded myself from charity shops. I tried to share the pics before but the fandom website didn’t seem to like the multiple images I tried to show so for now I shall show off one I think is very special and old. It could be from the 50’s judging by the one on the wiki with the number closest to this one.
Hello all.
I am new to this wiki, and just now I added some patterns that I had for sale, but were not listed anywhere. Unfortunately, I did not notice that I had included quotation marks around the pattern when I listed it. Is there a way for me to edit the title (it looks as if the answer is no), and is this a big enough issue that I should delete the pages and start all over again? I think I did this on four pages:
https://vintagepatterns.fandom.com/wiki/%22Marian_Martin_4906%22
https://vintagepatterns.fandom.com/wiki/%22Anne_Adams_4764_B%22
https://vintagepatterns.fandom.com/wiki/%22Marian_Martin_9217_C%22
https://vintagepatterns.fandom.com/wiki/%22Anne_Adams_4890_C%22
Thank you in advance for any advice. I am a novice, so please go easy on me. *smile*
Can someone help me find this pattern on the wiki?
This wiki is pretty interesting to look at from time to time, it's pretty fun, and has given outfit drawing ideas. Anyways this probably the only post I'll ever make here but thanks for all inspo.
Im not sur if this is the right place to post this but i saw a lady wearing a dress like this and i just can't find how it's called, i wanna make it for myself
Hi! I am looking for any example of this pattern (no matter what size), as it is for research on my doctoral dissertation. I am writing about clothing for disability in the US from roughly 1950-1975, and this is an example of a design that the Bureau of Home Economics developed for "physically handicapped homemakers." Marian Martin then created the pattern and sold it as "sports separates" for all women. This image popped up on Google from Etsy, but it isn't connected to a listing anymore so I think it was sold quite some time ago. If anyone has any leads on this particular pattern, I would be so grateful!! Thank you!!
Its a sweet little pair of Bibbed Pants with Blouse. Size 36 or 38 would be perfect. But smaller size okay I will just alter the pattern.
I've been going through my vintage sewing patterns since I need to purge them for a move (is there a support forum here? LOL)
I can came across this one and can't remember where/how I got it. Has anyone seen vintage Chinese sewing patterns? If so, got any info on this one? I'm guessing it's from Hong Kong (due to the pricing on the front), and it's prolly from either late-60's or early-70's.
I don't think that I've seen any other Chinese sewing pattern in my life (vintage or otherwise). So any info on popular Chinese sewing patterns would be great too. I used Google translate on it and only came with something along the lines of "Really modern outfit paper pattern" :)
How do I delete a photo ? It ended up in the wrong place.
Apologies, I used to know how to do this!
Tarna or Petite Main, I created a new page for V7451B and can't seem to edit from the patterns template. The image is from Etsy (vendor on the vendors list).
Sorry about this and thank you, Sarah
How can I find this pattern to make it. Would be great for a 75th anniversary this fall.
Searching for this pattern or a copy of the back pattern piece Size 14.
I've noticed a change when I search for a pattern. In the past, if I searched McCall's 6145, I would get links to
McCall's 6145
McCall's 6145 A
McCall's 6145 B ... and so on.
Now, it's only showing the pattern number without the alphabet letter entries.
When I tried to create McCall's 6145 A, I got a message saying it already exists with a link to that page. From there I was able to update my current link under Vendors.
Hopefully this is just a temporary glitch.
A user created a "talk" page for McCall's 4610 asking if I had this pattern, and I do not know how to respond to her? Can someone please advise? Thanks!
Looking for information about this pattern. The envelope is missing, so I don't know who published it. Appears to be from the mid 1940s.
Hi there. If anyone happens to have, and would have and like to sell the Kwik Sew pattern #2501, please let me know. I would love to purchase this and make this swimsuit for my wife for a present. This pattern looks perfect.
Many thanks, Brian.
