A New and Exciting Business Endeavor

As many of you may know, I purchased At the Sign of the Golden Scissors and Larkin & Smith sewing pattern line back in August. I've been working hard all year to achieve this goal and I'm so excited by the many possibilities this endeavor offers in allowing me to continue sharing my love of sewing, research and creativity with a wider audience and in a more official capacity than I have been able to do in the past. This will benefit living history peeps as well as historical costumers! I am working diligently to reprint each of the beloved Larkin & Smith 18th century sewing patterns, starting with the English Gown and the Front and Back Lacing Stays. As we head into the holiday shopping season I will be adding more items to the website, many of them will be new Old Stock items from the former owners.

What does all this mean for Emily's Vintage Visions? Well, starting next year I will begin incorporating my vintage style reproductions and curated collection of true vintage and antique items for sale on the Golden Scissors website. How exciting to be able to combine a love of historical and vintage sewing under one roof! My Instagram accounts and Facebook pages for Emily's Vintage Visions and At the Sign of the Golden Scissors will remain as they are - independent of each other - so you will be able to follow one or both as you choose.

What's Next? MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

Big Announcement Coming Soon!

Hello everyone! I know it's been ages since I last posted anything on my blog. However, I will have a big announcement coming soon that I hope will be as exciting to the living history and historical costuming communities as it is to me. I have big plans and I can't wait to share them with you so stay tuned! My Etsy shop is currently set to vacation mode. I will be moving future listing to a new platform.
