1912 Titanic Sewing Project

I am involved in an exciting sewing project sponsored by the Vintage Pattern Lending Library. With the upcoming 100-year anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, VPLL is tackling one of the Library’s archives largest projects- the scanning and digitizing of the patterns and magazines of La Mode Illustree – once France’s foremost publication of fashion.

We will be starting with the April 1912 Issues, which are the ones closest to the Titanic date.  Afterwards, we will be working through the rest of issues in the hopes of completing the full year by the end of 2012.Participants are split into groups and given random patterns to create using original instructions.
