On an impulse I bought two patterns for one of the Board members because Joann's was having such a tremendous sale last weekend. I was right -- she really liked one of them a lot. She'd just purchased it from ebay! Soooo -- for those of you who have normal sized Felicities who don't want their stays to be laced so tight that their heads pop off -- I'd be happy to send you a brand new McCall's 3627 for $3.50 by priority mail. The pattern cost $2 and I'm guessing about the postage. It includes a sort of Betsy Ross dress with an apron and two versions of Felicity's dress, one with a mob cap and one with the pin-on style flat cap. Also has a pretty yoked nightgown and two prairie style dresses from the same pattern, one with a sun bonnet and the other with the mob cap. The Felicity dress is actually a skirt and top with the point where the stomacher would be and could be practical for a tea lesson, boiling applesauce and dancing.
Sorry -- no way to post a picture -- but probably someone is selling it on ebay and you could look at it there. The original price is $11.50, which no one would ever pay, but $2 is a good buy, I think.

bumping because today has been such a busy day.

I have accidentally bought patterns that I already had at home and Joann's has taken it back with a receipt or allowed me to exchange it for another size (when it was kids' clothes). If you don't have a taker on the board, maybe you could return it.
I'm big on returning extras that I buy. I hate things that just sit around unused. Don't be embarrassed or feel funny--you bought 2 and needed 1. If it's obviously uncut and you just purchased it, then they won't hassle you.

Thanks for the link, Kathy! And I'm bumping again because I posted this less than 24 hours ago and I ended up on page 4! Right next to oblivion?
So now that you can see how neat this pattern is by using the link, is anyone interested?
