Holy crap! I just went to my friends house today and her familie's friend had just died, and given my friend all of her old stuff, and she has those exact patters and vintage stuff from simplicity. Its the first time I saw them, and then I get on here, AND THERE THEY ARE!!! lol

But it is a great Idea, I was thinking of making them into a poster or something.
