Morning!
I think it is about time I told you all about a little blog which I have been working on over the last few months...
As the title suggests this is my attempt to create an on-line link library of free vintage knitting, crochet, and sewing patterns. The idea being, it will make it easier for you and me to find the perfect vintage pattern by having them all (I can dream) listed in one place.
It is obviously going to be an ongoing project, as there will always be new patterns somewhere on the web to be added to the collection, but hopefully, it will be a useful tool for those of you who love vintage patterns and free stuff as much as I do!
If you have any links you would like to add or suggestions on how to make it more user-friendly I would love to hear from you, I will always ensure that you are credited :)

DeleteGlad you're doing this Wendy, I used to have a page on my blog with free patterns whcih was quite popular but I never updated it so removed it in the end. Now I can just look at your blog instead!
