My Late 1980s to Mid 1990s Sewing Wishlist

Coming off my very recent post this may seem odd, but I have to confess to still appreciating some 1990s and 1980s styles.

I used to sew in a serious manner (eg no silly t-shirts) back in the late 1980s to mid 1990s, and there were some patterns I sewed back then that I would love to make again.  But to do so would require adjustments / sizing up, and more in some areas than in others.  Frankly I just don't have that much time.  So here's my top 5 of the late 1980s to mid 1990s patterns I wish I could find the time to make again in my current size:

I made the skirt in black linen blend, and the blouse in a fabulous textured grey silk
made in a floral poly-cotton for a party: I loved this dress
made in a red poly-cotton: another one I loved
much loved in navy handkerchief linen - given away after too much shrinkage
made in shorter length in burgandy velvet - some issues but lots of potential
So many sewing wishes, so little time!
