Vintage Bow Belt Pattern Kit

Choose fabric from dropdown to view choices. Limited quantity with paper pattern. Introducing the 1940's Bow Belt pattern. This is a hand traced copy of a special vintage pattern from my collection. It is a fun little project that is perfect for using a small piece of something special (5/8 yard). The pattern is hand traced on dotted pattern paper, with handwritten notes on the pattern. Instructions are scanned and there is an information sheet with some notes. The bow is created from 3 pieces, 1 for each side and 1 for the bow piece. It comes sized for a 28" but is easy to enlarge to your measurements. It requires some interfacing for the center that really depends on the weight/belt of the fabric. The pattern recommends hymo that is cross stitched down. You can make this with a variety of fabrics, you can underline to make more stable and sturdy. Feel free to ask me for advice. 

Sample is cut crossgrain in this fabric here. 

What the kit includes: 

• Printed paper pattern, instruction sheet, and notes on plain paper. There is no fanfare here in the printing and packaging. We are here to create.
• Fabric suitable for a waist size 28" that can increase to 45" but it can go up more depending on the width of the fabric. If your waist is bigger just reach out and I will make sure there is enough, I can cut a bigger piece for your needs.  We can adjust to accommodate. Also, there is some room to fussy cut to arrange the pattern in the fabric to your preferences. Again reach out with any questions. 
• 1/2 yard of Rigilene boning enough for 2 belts
• 4 tiny tiny black hook and eyes
• A piece of lightweight hymo, you may want to use something heavier or also underline - just depends. 
• Fabric. The layout is cross grain.

Links to fabric info: (note the vintage gold matisse is very narrow, if you have a wider than 35" waist reach out and I will custom cut your piece).
