Vtg 70s Butterick 3846 Betsey Johnson Alley Cat Bell Pants/Skirt w/Bib FF-16/38

Butterick #3846 dates to 1973. This cute hippie boho pattern by Betsey Johnson consists of high waist bell bottom pants and A-line skirt with optional patch elements and big useful front patch pockets. In addition, you can give them a more overall style look with the removable bib with crossed back straps. Early in her career Betsey Johnson headed the Alley Cat brand, a youth oriented company favored by rock stars and their followers. Some sources indicate that she created only 8 patterns in this line but I am pretty sure I have seen, and owned, more than 8 of these designs. It is complete, printed, in excellent factory folds condition; envelope is decent with some shelf wear and a bit of age darkening.

Size 16: Bust 38, Waist 30, Hip 40

My Pattern Info

I list quite a few patterns from time to time so here is some information about my process.

· All individually listed patterns have been counted and graded for condition.

· Patterns listed in lots of 5+ have usually not been counted.

· Complete means just that, all pattern pieces, instructions, and any transfers or things of that nature are present.

· All individually listed patterns come in a protective archival (acid-free) sleeve or bag. Sometimes when pattern pieces are counted and refolded the pieces are too bulky to safely fit back into the envelope and are included in the archival sleeve separate from the envelope in order to prevent further damage. This is especially true of patterns with large voluminous pieces such as 50s style full skirts.

· Patterns up to a count of 3 are shipped in high quality, stiff photo mailers to prevent damage in transit.

· Pattern lots of more than 3 are shipped in a box in order to prevent damage.

· I welcome combined shipping.

· My photos will always include a shot of the pattern piece outlines and any description present on the envelope with zoom and enlargement available.

· As a serious seamstress I will sometimes offer patterns that are well-loved or otherwise compromised if I feel they have design merit that is too good to throw away. These will be priced accordingly.
