Vintage sewing finds. Notions and patterns Sewing to the Moon

My mama gave me a small bag of vintage sewing things she found while rummaging through the garage. She thought I might like them, and she was right! So, I had to share.

Red lace seam binding. I use this for finishing a hem on a skirt usually.

Vintage zippers. Do you see the prices?!!?

There were a few vintage zippers still in the packages. I love the info on the zipper packaging. I love the 70s pattern too. The pattern insert is so easy and simple. Why can't patterns be as simple as they were back then? The back of the envelope is easy to read as well.

Want to look as cute as a button? Want to avoid a bad hair day? Or... do you just want to sew up something quick and easy? This is the project for you.

I reach for my headscarf whenever I need to fix my hair quickly or am on day 3+ hair. There's no time to wash and dry it, so I'll wrap my hair up in a bun and put on my head scarf.
Quick fix, yes!!
