Timeless Stitches Patterns We have broke down certain patterns into two categories
|
All the patterns are my own designs and I do not carry anybody else's. These patterns are proven that the garment was used and works before they are released. They are not based on concept like so many others. I will be coming out with more patterns & patterns for children in the near future. If you have any Idea's or special needs, please contact me. To view these
patterns you need acrobat reader . If you do not have this program click |

Bodices: Bodices or the upper half of the outfit came in many shapes and styles. I have tried to provide a wide range of styles for all body types and uses. These bodices use several methods of fitting, vertical darts, gathers, pleats and fitted pattern pieces. They also have a variety of finishing methods for the lower edge: piping, waistband, tucked-in and over skirt, all depending on the style of the garment. Please carefully read the pattern descriptions to decide which bodice style will best suit you and your planned outfit. |

The fitted bodice was the most common bodice of the 1860’s. It is fitted tight to the body with vertical darts in the front and the curved lines of the back. This bodice pattern is for a jewel neck line with modified pagoda sleeves. It is a style that was worn by women of all ages. When combined with a Timeless Stitches skirt pattern makes a perfect day dress or camp dress. |

TSB-103 TEA BODICE Tea Bodices were worn to “take Tea” which often mean an afternoon of visiting. Tea Bodices were designed to “be seen” in and thus were fancier than a day dress. This pattern has a fitted front that falls to a point over the waistband of your skirt and a peplum back. The bodice has a jewel neckline with pagoda sleeves. The sleeves and peplum are designed to be trimmed with a self-fabric pleated ruffle. The bodice can be fastened at the front with your choice of three optional closings This is a very dressy and flattering style |

TSB-105 One of the most common jacket worn
during the Era. Worn originally as a show of Patriotism, the Zouave
Jacket, fast became the Jacket of choice. The first Jackets were black
with red trim but the style soon progressed to many color and fabric
combinations, but the trim color was mainly black. Ensembles including
Zouave jackets can be worn as outdoor wear including riding habits. This
pattern is for two styles of Zouave Jacket: the open jacket and the
closed jacket with |

TSB-108 This pattern is for a simple but dressy bodice that combines many of the features of bodices of the era. The bodice is not tightly fitted; instead it utilizes small pleats along the waistline to give it shape and structure. This is a great bodice to start your Civil War sewing, as it is one of the easiest to make and fit, while giving you the basic sewing techniques for garments of the Era. The bodice is designed so it can either be tucked into your skirt or placed on a waistband. |

TSB-109 BASQUE BODICE The definition of a Basque Bodice is a bodice that extends below the waist, over the skirt. Empress Eugenie of France made this Basque style popular. In 1858 she ordered 25 of these garments in many fabric choices. The bodice is not tight fitting, like most of the bodices worn; it utilizes pleats or gathers and fabric belts to give it shape at the waistline. This makes this garment more comfortable to wear than many of the tight-fitting bodices. Options are included in the pattern for three styles of edging: pleated, ruffled and a fabric ruching, as well as an optional pelerine |

TSB-110 SWISS BODICE A Swiss Body is basically a jacket without sleeves. Swiss Bodies and other “waists” were very popular because they extended a Ladies wardrobe. The addition of a Swiss Body and Tucked Bodice to your wardrobe gives you many new “outfit” choices. Swiss Bodies were worn for everything from traveling to evening wear depending on the fabric from which it was made. Swiss Bodies are very comfortable to wear as they give free movement unlike the tight fitted bodices. |
