We're in preview mode while the 1200+ patterns from Rosemary Yirka's collection are posted. You can view the new listings each day as they go up, but requests will not be taken until we're done.

  Special Collections of vintage sewing patterns may be available for a limited period of time, and the daily limits will vary on each collection. Unlike the rest of the Trade area, some patterns may be redeemable for fewer than 5 points. Use the page links above to browse the collection; copy and paste the pattern ID numbers in the third column of our Request Form.

The vintage sewing patterns in this Special Collection -- as well as all the patterns in the Recycle and Trade areas this time -- were donated by the family of Rosemary Rozum-Yirka. Her collection covers 5 decades of sewing. We're honored to have them and thank her family for their generosity in sharing both Rosemary's patterns and her story.

General: There is no specific time limit on this collection, and you may request as many patterns as you like. The request processing procedures and shipping times are the same as the Recycle area.

Daily limits apply to all requests -- so a handful of people don't wipe out the entire supply. The daily limit for this Special Collection is 6. If you request 24 patterns, we'll allocate 6 patterns to you the first day, then another 6 the second day, and so on until we've finished your request -- or you run out of pattern points.

The Special Collection program is void if and where prohibited by law.
