Love watching you! Do you ever do speaking at local events? Would be great to meet you. In Wintergarden heading back to NE Ohio. Snowbirds time to fly back before we melt!
Wow, learning about you has been great. I used to collect patterns because fashion trends were in paper patterns, and if you wanted a pattern for wide leg bell bottoms after they might be out of fashion, the same type of paper pattern was not available,
Great interview. Betsy McCall was a paper doll found inside McCall’s magazine. I used to cut them out when I was a girl. I inherited my grandmother’s sewing cabinet. Inside I found a pattern for a little girl’s dress that I remember wearing when I was probably 4 or 5. It’s memorable because I remember a flower that was appliquéd onto a pocket.
This is my all time favorite interview! One thing she reminded me of in these modern days of beautiful quality quilting cottons that barely shrink, rarely run or fade and virtually never have “problems” is the number of defects we used to encounter back in the olden days of the Fifties and Sixties. You would need three yards of something, spread it out, and there would be a big weaving error through it. You could buy it and try to work around it-or get something else. I had completely forgotten about that in my modern fabric bliss! Great interview, Karen, thank you! And thank you, Stephanie Canada! 😊
32:20 On the topic of if patterns are worthy of museums: I don't know if you guys know Aenne Burda, the German founder of "Burda Moden" (Fashion). She founded a huge enterprise on the basis of sewing patterns after WW2. She wanted to make women feel pretty again. There is movie about her and several exhibitions, publications etc because she was a real celebrity. And sewing patterns are always shown because they played a big part in social life in Germany. It made pretty clothes affordable. (Other than now where sewing is quite an expensive hobby.. ) Greetings from Germany 🙋🏼♀️
It's a 2 part documentary called "Aenne Burda - Die Wirtschaftswunderfrau". It can be streamed. Unfortunately UA-cam doesn't let me post a link. Just Google for "ard mediathek aenne burda film teil 1 und 2". It's all German though.
Yes! My friend from Argentina, back in the early 70’s, did a lot of sewing from Burda- she was so sophisticated but it was too much for me( too expensive) but I loved it- My wedding dress from Simplicity and my gf, her mother, made my dress- the wedding pattern was $ 3.75 and my wedding dress dress fabric was $9 dollars- that was 1967. . I was lucky and she sewed my wedding dress!
I have no desire at all to make a vintage clothing pattern and never have, and yet I have watched loads of Stephanie's videos. She's just so entertaining.
Karen, you always find the most interesting interview subjects! Not only entertaining, but educational. I now know what to be on the lookout for in going through my mom's fabric stash and her and grandmother's patterns! I greatly appreciate that you ask all the right questions, and then let your guest answer the questions fully. Many thanks for all of your hard work to bring us these videos!
I wonder if Ms Ruth learned to sew in one of the factories that made WWII uniforms. My Mom did. She lived in Tennessee up in the mountains, and all of the ladies around had jobs at the factory that was making army uniforms. My mom,Ruth, learned to sew their by adding pockets and zippers to trousers on a type of assembly line. My Mom made all of our dresses. My mom loved patterns, and unfortunately, every so often would go through and say I’ll never use this one again and put it in her donate box. She made all of her Sunday dresses, my Dad pastored and Mom always looked so nice. You brought back many memories with this video. My Mom not only made dresses, but Quilting too. My mom loved to quilt. Her first quilt was made from fabric that came from a sewing mill in North Carolina, 1960. I still have the quilt, and it is beautiful. Keep saving our sewing history.
In my “resource center” I have kept the toddler size coat pattern from Advance pattern company with a price of 25 cents…it was my mothers pattern that she used for all 4 of us girls for Easter coats…and the youngest of the 4 will be 67 this year….also have fabric my mother purchased in Singapore in the 1970’s and other treasures!
I had no idea that there was a market for these! I inherited my mom’s 1960’s/1970’s patterns, children’s and adult. Cleaning out my sewing room a couple of years ago, I donated them to my guild’s quilt show. No one touched them, even the vintage pattern box. I would have loved to give them to someone like Stephanie. I really enjoyed her story!
When I lost 2 sizes after I retired, my lifetime wardrobe disappeared. In surfing the net for ideas, I found Stephanie Canada. Super fun to watch. I also watch Catherine Sews and learned new ways to cut down my old clothes. I inherited 8 bins of fabric and it's been quite a journey trying to see what I have. For comfort I switched from pants to dresses, added fleece underskirts for winters, etc. I love this new world of young sewists and their creativity.
I was hired to made a quilt out of vintage bark cloth. The person was a bark cloth collector and decided she wanted to use the fabric. So she decided to finally have the fabric cut into and a beautiful was made. Love the interview now going to go and check out Stephanie’s videos.
Interesting to listen to her journey. I purchased vintage sewing "stuff" from a storage unit once. There were at least 5 bankers boxes of vintage patterns from 60s through 90s. Most too small for me and i no longer sewed garmets. Quilter friend's daughter in costuming school. So i gifted them to her. She was thrilled to have free patterns to take sleeves from one to body of another to make her own pieces. So glad to find a person to use them!
Omgosh. Love this. I did the same. Buy said pattern. Open. Cut all extras off. Sometimes continued and sewed said pattern. Sometimes not. I still have some of those today. Over 40 yrs old. Thanks for sharing.
Great interview Karen. Such a fascinating lady Stephanie is and what a great job she has. I have a box of my mum's patterns from the 1960s. Well used, probably won't use them again, but can't throw them out.👏♥️🇦🇺
I have been collecting vintage fabric & patterns for 40 years and I learned a few new things. I just wish I had luck selling my vintage uncut patterns like you do. I guess I need a different venue, but ebay is what I started with and I just don't have the ambition to try something else. Glad you rescued all that fabric!
What a great interview! Stephanie is so enthusiastic and amazing. It felt like the time just flew by. It was such a treat to be able to watch this episode.
Many months ago, I stumbled upon Stephanie's video of her estate purchase. I love estate purchasing in my area, so of course it was the perfect video for me. I was enamored with her adventure for the entirety of the video! Not only was it fun to be on that ride with her, but to see her sort through all of her winnings was fun! She is also highly entertaining to listen to! Great personality!
Great interview Karen! I knew it would be. Stephanie's love of vintage patterns and now fabric is so infectious 😊❤. I love hearing the story of Miss Ruth.🩷
I have all of my moms old patterns. Also many we bought when I was 13, I'm now 64. I would love to find a new home for them. I have some 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980 and 1990 patterns.
WhT a wonderful thing to listen to. No tea or sewing, but it was a good distraction while turning the compost and starting to dig out the beds for spring planting
I have all of my Mom’s old patterns. She used to make all the family clothes, even winter coats. I’m a quilter, but I don’t love sewing clothes. She was going to throw them away, but I rescued them. I love remembering the clothes that were made with each pattern. As a child, I loved playing with the button box. Unfortunately, she no longer had those.
I would play in my mother's and grandmother's button boxes too! I used to love that. Thank you for taking me back to the floor of my mom's sewing room.
I heard about Stephanie through the channel SewRena and she kept raving about Stephanie so I had to check her out. Great interview! I've been sewing and quilting for 48 years and I love this vintage sewing thing going on right now. I think it's so wonderful and sweet that Stephanie started this because she wanted to keep her mom's legacy going! I hope my kids snd grandkids feel the same about my work one day!😊
Hi Karen. This was SUCH a fun interview to watch! All of your videos introduce people that we want to get to know better. You bring everyone together. (Never thought I'd be so grateful for the Internet!!!) Hugs from B.C.
I loved that my worlds collided! I didn't realize at first that this was one of your videos, because I also subscribe to her channel. Wonderful interview!
Another very entertaining video 🎉. You made me go look in my stash... I have a 1958 McCall's pattern for Raggedy Ann and Andy. Still in original envelope and it appears to be factory folded! There's a little tag inside that tells me my mother in law purchased a yard sale years ago knowing I love sewing ❤❤
Great interview again Karen. My first sewing room purge, before I found you, I gave away multiple patterns, starting from the 50s up to 2000 when I did mostly Halloween costumes for grands. Had a lot as I made most of my daughter’s clothes in the 60s. Some days I wish I had kept some as one of my younger granddaughters lives vintage. lol, too late now. Very interesting information.
Thoroughly enjoyed your video! I have my mother's patterns (can't seem to part with them even though they are seldom used). I'm also one who cuts off the extra pattern pieces, but I fold them up and put them back in the envelope and save them in case I need to make the same thing in a different size!
I am very happy to learn that you like to watch Stephanie Canada also. I have the Bernina Patchwork Edition. The reason I don't want to buy pre-washed fabrics is because the chemicals that protected the fabrics have been washed out.
Hello neighbor! Love this interview. I too love the vintage patterns. Wish we had an indoor market. It is way too hot here .Hope to run into you at sometime.
Love this! ❤ LOL, no I bet I have the largest collection of cut patterns. My grandma, mom & aunts let me cut out every pattern when I was 7/8 years old. I LOVE patterns!
I grew up in Orlando & went to school with a few Canada's. In E. Orlando, that wasn't rare. I was told there were groups of Mormons with the name's of Canada & Tanner.
My mom worked in the Simplicity warehouse when I was a kid. She bought one of those pattern cabinets they were getting rid of, and my dad made a top bunk loft out of it. Those pattern drawers held my clothes from about age 7-13. When I was a first grader, she came in for career day and gave everyone Halloween costume patterns. Not sure that made her very popular with the other moms.😂
Great video!! I have a couple words to say about U-Haul: Budget or Penske. So many horror stories about U-Haul. So happy your day turned out successfully! I watch your video on your trip. It was so interesting!!!
36:17 McCalls had a Betty Crocker? New York Patterns for sure it looked like they had a fictional designer. I can't wait for someone to look deeper into this. I don't know if i can do it though. I'm here through Stephanie Canada 🇨🇦 good interview 😅
Stephanie!! So excited to see you here on Karen’s channel! I had never heard Stephanie’s origin story before. Have you told this on your channel before and I missed it? I think I’ve been to that U-Haul place to rent a truck to move my daughter. Two of those places in SC can’t be the same amount of slow and inefficient. Did it smell like they smoked inside all day?
The Betsy McCall story reminds me of F.W. Dixon, who was supposedly the writer of the Hardy Boys books. In reality, my husband's great uncle Leslie MacFarlane from Haileybury Ontario Canada wrote the first dozen books, then someone else took over. He was paid $150 per book and received no royalties. True story.
I used to sew all of my daughters Easter dresses and Halloween costumes. O and Barbie doll clothes. Quilts came naturally 🤪 I see lots of sewing patterns at rummage sales almost free. Do you want me to send you some??🤩
It was so lovely to be your guest for this episode! Thank you so much!
It was great to see you Stephanie, I get a double dose of you this week. 😊
Loved seeing you here. I don't sew clothing anymore but I love watching you go through old patterns and dream of making some.
Enjoyed the interview very much!! Thanks again. ❤❤
Love watching you! Do you ever do speaking at local events? Would be great to meet you. In Wintergarden heading back to NE Ohio. Snowbirds time to fly back before we melt!
Wow, learning about you has been great. I used to collect patterns because fashion trends were in paper patterns, and if you wanted a pattern for wide leg bell bottoms after they might be out of fashion, the same type of paper pattern was not available,

Inside I found a pattern for a little girl’s dress that I remember wearing when I was probably 4 or 5. It’s memorable because I remember a flower that was appliquéd onto a pocket.
My older sister had an actual Betsy McCall doll, maybe 7” tall? Had a little gingham shirt and jointed legs.
This is my all time favorite interview! One thing she reminded me of in these modern days of beautiful quality quilting cottons that barely shrink, rarely run or fade and virtually never have “problems” is the number of defects we used to encounter back in the olden days of the Fifties and Sixties. You would need three yards of something, spread it out, and there would be a big weaving error through it. You could buy it and try to work around it-or get something else. I had completely forgotten about that in my modern fabric bliss! Great interview, Karen, thank you! And thank you, Stephanie Canada! 😊
So much we take for granted today
Oh heck, I had forgotten about that, it is why I buy extra fabric. Decades later still buying extra fabric.
I watched Stephanie’s videos of picking up the trailer load plus others and was so overwhelmed! Loved this interview with her!
32:20 On the topic of if patterns are worthy of museums: I don't know if you guys know Aenne Burda, the German founder of "Burda Moden" (Fashion).

Greetings from Germany 🙋🏼♀️
Do you have the name of the documentary? I would love to see it
It's a 2 part documentary called "Aenne Burda - Die Wirtschaftswunderfrau". It can be streamed. Unfortunately UA-cam doesn't let me post a link. Just Google for "ard mediathek aenne burda film teil 1 und 2".
It's all German though.
There is a long description at both parts. You can copy it to Deepl and get it translated.
Yes! My friend from Argentina, back in the early 70’s, did a lot of sewing from Burda- she was so sophisticated but it was too much for me( too expensive) but I loved it- My wedding dress from Simplicity and my gf, her mother, made my dress- the wedding pattern was $ 3.75 and my wedding dress dress fabric was $9 dollars- that was 1967. . I was lucky and she sewed my wedding dress!
Great interview Karen. I loved her energy and excitement. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
2 of my favorite UA-camrs in one video! It's like Christmas. Great interview.
Wow, thanks! I only discovered her this year. I love her energy.
I have no desire at all to make a vintage clothing pattern and never have, and yet I have watched loads of Stephanie's videos. She's just so entertaining.
She could be an honorary Canadian with all her sarcasm 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Me too
My favorite quilt lady hosts my favorite vintage lady? Could I be happier? Thank you so much!
🤗🤗🤗
Karen, you always find the most interesting interview subjects! Not only entertaining, but educational. I now know what to be on the lookout for in going through my mom's fabric stash and her and grandmother's patterns!
I greatly appreciate that you ask all the right questions, and then let your guest answer the questions fully. Many thanks for all of your hard work to bring us these videos!
I've been watching Stephanie for over a year, so fun. ❤

Oh my goodness! I love that!
I really enjoyed this episode. The joy of the love of patters and fabric was great.
I had no idea that there was a market for these! I inherited my mom’s 1960’s/1970’s patterns, children’s and adult. Cleaning out my sewing room a couple of years ago, I donated them to my guild’s quilt show. No one touched them, even the vintage pattern box. I would have loved to give them to someone like Stephanie. I really enjoyed her story!
You took me back with this one.
Would love to have my old patterns again.
I loved her interview. How excited she is about what she does. Love your Quilt Circle and all your videos.
Excellent interview! Stephanie's energy is contagious! She makes me want to hunt down patterns at estate sales :o)
I learned so much from Stephanie on this episode. I will save and watch again. Thenk you so much.
Yes, love her unboxings. More than once, she's sold me a pattern or sold me a pattern she sold out of.
I love it when two of my favorite UA-camrs are in the same video. Thank you both!
Yay! Thank you!

I was hired to made a quilt out of vintage bark cloth. The person was a bark cloth collector and decided she wanted to use the fabric. So she decided to finally have the fabric cut into and a beautiful was made. Love the interview now going to go and check out Stephanie’s videos.
Always a fun time with Miss Stephanie❤🎉
I need to watch this! Have Grandma's old patterns. Also when in SE Spain I met a man who gave cave tours and his last name was Canada.
I wonder where the surname came from
Interesting to listen to her journey. I purchased vintage sewing "stuff" from a storage unit once. There were at least 5 bankers boxes of vintage patterns from 60s through 90s. Most too small for me and i no longer sewed garmets. Quilter friend's daughter in costuming school. So i gifted them to her.

Oh my goodness how amazing! I am sure she was thrilled to get them!
This was so fun! I've been watching Stephanie for years and binge watching you all week. Glad you two know each other. 🌻🍄
Omgosh. Love this. I did the same. Buy said pattern. Open. Cut all extras off. Sometimes continued and sewed said pattern. Sometimes not. I still have some of those today. Over 40 yrs old. Thanks for sharing.

My local paper used to show patterns you could buy through the mail. I loved looking at them.
Sounds like a must try! Thanks for all the recipes!
I just love her bubbly personality! ❤ great interview

Oh my, this lady is Amazing
Devil dust! Never knew about that! Thanks for having her on. ❤
That was new to me as well
Loved seeing Stephanie Canada interview! Discovered her not thzt long ago and her videos sre so much fun! Sewing in Chaos describes me perfectly!❤❤❤
A very interesting and entertaining interview! Thank you both!
Beautiful and unique episode, thank you for sharing this 💛
I loved Aenne Burda back in those days!
Love it! Karen you should also interview Sewrena.
AGREED!
What a fabulous interviewee! I loved everything about her. Thanks, Karen.

Reach out to Stephanie. I’m sure she would love them
WhT a wonderful thing to listen to. No tea or sewing, but it was a good distraction while turning the compost and starting to dig out the beds for spring planting
I just loved this interview. Thanks so much ladies. 😊
Fabrics and patterns, totally interesting, thank you both. 🌺

or maybe a niece...sometimes it's a lateral
True. Several of my nieces appreciate my sewing, but so do my daughters, daughter in law and granddaughters! 😄
Great interview. Lots of good information regarding vintage patterns and fabric.
What a fabulous interview. So entertaining ❤
Really interesting!
Thank you Karen.
I believe I saw a video of her loading the truck. Fabric bolts were packed in as tight as possible.
Yup! That was me!
Hi Karen. This was SUCH a fun interview to watch! All of your videos introduce people that we want to get to know better. You bring everyone together. (Never thought I'd be so grateful for the Internet!!!) Hugs from B.C.
I loved that my worlds collided! I didn't realize at first that this was one of your videos, because I also subscribe to her channel. Wonderful interview!
Stephanie is so fun! Very interesting, glad to learn!
Very interesting, thanks for sharing. 👍❤️🙂
I enjoy listening to both of you. I do also follow Stephanie.
Another very entertaining video 🎉. You made me go look in my stash... I have a 1958 McCall's pattern for Raggedy Ann and Andy. Still in original envelope and it appears to be factory folded! There's a little tag inside that tells me my mother in law purchased a yard sale years ago knowing I love sewing ❤❤
That is awesome!
I love these Collab episodes of my fave UA-cam "celebs" in the sewing community
Great interview again Karen. My first sewing room purge, before I found you, I gave away multiple patterns, starting from the 50s up to 2000 when I did mostly Halloween costumes for grands.

Yes pattern is fun thank you
Thoroughly enjoyed your video! I have my mother's patterns (can't seem to part with them even though they are seldom used). I'm also one who cuts off the extra pattern pieces, but I fold them up and put them back in the envelope and save them in case I need to make the same thing in a different size!
I am very happy to learn that you like to watch Stephanie Canada also. I have the Bernina Patchwork Edition. The reason I don't want to buy pre-washed fabrics is because the chemicals that protected the fabrics have been washed out.
Hello neighbor! Love this interview.
I too love the vintage patterns. Wish we had an indoor market. It is way too hot here .Hope to run into you at sometime.
That was sooo interesting. Thank you
I LOVE STEPHANIE!!!!!
Isn't she wonderful 😊
Love this! ❤ LOL, no I bet I have the largest collection of cut patterns. My grandma, mom & aunts let me cut out every pattern when I was 7/8 years old. I LOVE patterns!
I do enjoy an unboxing even if I haven't ventured into vintage dressing (other than victorian)
I grew up in Ft. Smith Arkansas with some Canadas.
Fascinating!
What a fun guest! Love it!!!
I grew up in Orlando & went to school with a few Canada's. In E. Orlando, that wasn't rare. I was told there were groups of Mormons with the name's of Canada & Tanner.
OH MY! I had no idea.
Interesting
My mom worked in the Simplicity warehouse when I was a kid. She bought one of those pattern cabinets they were getting rid of, and my dad made a top bunk loft out of it. Those pattern drawers held my clothes from about age 7-13.
When I was a first grader, she came in for career day and gave everyone Halloween costume patterns. Not sure that made her very popular with the other moms.😂
Thanks for sharing
Such a cool episode. I'm from Knoxviille. I'll have to look up the name Canada. 😊
Great video!! I have a couple words to say about U-Haul: Budget or Penske. So many horror stories about U-Haul. So happy your day turned out successfully! I watch your video on your trip. It was so interesting!!!
Vintage patterns are good for movies, too
Loved thus interview
36:17 McCalls had a Betty Crocker?
New York Patterns for sure it looked like they had a fictional designer. I can't wait for someone to look deeper into this. I don't know if i can do it though.
I'm here through Stephanie Canada 🇨🇦 good interview 😅
I love digging into history
T 80 thus takes Me back the best viedo I have ever seen
I love Stephanie's dress ❤❤❤
Great interview. I "found" her a few months ago, but still don't 'recognize' the name!
Stephanie!! So excited to see you here on Karen’s channel! I had never heard Stephanie’s origin story before. Have you told this on your channel before and I missed it? I think I’ve been to that U-Haul place to rent a truck to move my daughter. Two of those places in SC can’t be the same amount of slow and inefficient. Did it smell like they smoked inside all day?
The Betsy McCall story reminds me of F.W. Dixon, who was supposedly the writer of the Hardy Boys books. In reality, my husband's great uncle Leslie MacFarlane from Haileybury Ontario Canada wrote the first dozen books, then someone else took over. He was paid $150 per book and received no royalties. True story.
Wow. They also churned out Nancy Drew and the Bobsy twins
Very interesting!
Interesting!!
This was really cool and interesting!
Ohhh ladies where do I begin!?!???!!
This was fantastic, Thank You both very much👏👏👏. I reckon I have a new channel to check out😝!!!
🥰❤️😀
🎉❤Amazing Awesome, chat
What a delight
I used to sew all of my daughters Easter dresses and Halloween costumes. O and Barbie doll clothes. Quilts came naturally 🤪 I see lots of sewing patterns at rummage sales almost free. Do you want me to send you some??🤩
