I have a confession. I'm in love with a gal call Enid. Enid Gilchrist to be exact. She created many many pattern books between the 40s and 70s and there is something about them that I love. I cant wait to make some of them for the kids. The trick is you have to draft them...but wow how satisfying!
I found this blog...a homage to Enid. I found it through a forum discussion at Crafty Mamas. The author is a lady called Tracy. Thank you Tracy!
I look forward to sharing my "Enids" with you...

Funnily enough none of the patterns in that picture are by Enid Gilchrist, they are vintage French pattern magazines from my own private collection. I do not mind you using the photo but it would have been nice to have been asked first and given photo credit.
