I have had the pleasure of going about 4 times a year to New York City to work with the amazing Gretchen Hirsch, of Charm Patterns. She is the writer of “A Blog for Better Sewing”. Together with Shameless Pinups, we have all come together to achieve “The Fantasy” of ultimate vintage glamour for the home seamstress. Here are a few of my favorite photos we have shot in the last 2 years. Hair and makeup by Me. Photos by Shamless Pinups.
