Sleeve patterns, collars, dickies, hats etc. If you are just starting your vintage pattern collection, you might ask yourself, is it worth it to collect these patterns? I would say yes and no. Perhaps I’m not the *best* person to chime up on this, seeing as I am gaga over accessory patterns. And if you do decide to collect these, I’d like to offer up some tid-bits of advice. Accessory patterns are by far some of the most expensive patterns you will ever come across. Why? Because despite their incredible variety, they are genuinely rare. Having collected for years, I’ve seen duplicates of perhaps…three of the patterns I’ve collected floating out there. I’ve seen many, many different versions of patterns from hats to sleeves, but finding a complete, wearable accessory pattern is a challenge in and of itself. #1 Be prepared to pay. In my last Vintage Pattern Primer, I listed a 30s hat pattern that got away from me. $100+ is not unusual for a hat pattern, at all. I’ve even seen 40s hats go for that, and those pop up much more often. You could get a stroke of luck and get find a pattern underpriced, or get one from Ebay that didn’t get a lot of bids. Consider your self LUCKY, and I will be eternally jealous. These types of patterns are not just sought by gals who might want to make them up, but by collectors because of being scarce. So don’t be too dismayed if you find them way over your pricing budget. #2 Is it worth it to pay so much for an incomplete pattern? Desperation leads to higher prices. This 30’s Du Barry sleeve pattern was on Ebay and went for $50+. Its missing an entire sleeve (#1). It makes you wonder, did it sell so high because it’s a great pattern, or because its a sleeve pattern? This one went for $74. Its spectacular, but it was too small for my comfort, so I didn’t try for it. But I wanted to. But on another site, I got this pattern for $20 because the instructions were missing. This. Was. A. Find. I’m still beaming over it! Because these patterns often have so many pieces, they come up for sale a lot of times incomplete. Sometimes its a cuff, or a whole sleeve, or collar. Often its the interesting part that made you want the pattern in the first place. While buying it as is might be good, you have to ask yourself if its worth it, or do you want to wait and see if another will come along. #3 Are you actually going to use it? Is this going to be a collection piece or functional piece? That might change your attitude. #4 Hats One of the most sought after accessories patterns around. The hot ones are 22 and 23\
