Do you sew with vintage patterns? How about just old ones? Recently I came across an old pattern my mother had for sewing for me and my sisters. It is B line 6362, a spin-off pattern line by Butterick. It contains a dress shirt, vest, skirt, shorts, leggings, and a tie. Yep, a tie.
But I decided that a vest would be a nice addition to Abi's wardrobe so I sewed up this very easy pattern. It is a lined vest, but this is a simple project. I have also sewn up the leggings and they are a great one-piece leg pattern.
Review
Sizes available: The pattern only comes in sizes 7-10. But the vest looked big so I tried it on. Well, it fit me so depending on how loose you want it, it could fit most pre-teens.
Special materials
required: 2 buttons
Skill level required: beginner
Good: It is easy.
Bad: It is quite baggy and does not come in a lot of sizes.
Overall pattern
rating: 
I give this pattern three bolts because it is a bit dated and may be hard to find. But the individual pieces can be modernized and turn out pretty cute.
