Hi, I still have, from my teenage years in the 70s, this pattern for a handkerchief top but cannot find the directions for the pattern pieces that I have. Would anyone out there still have this pattern with the directions please.
It has got JIFFY on the front of the pattern packet. I don't know how to put a picture of the pattern on here.
Many thanks.

Is this the pattern https://fi.pinterest.com/pin/570338740281924500
The pieces of the pattern you have got should have the pattern number and details on it.
I would suggest that you attach the sleeves to the top back and front first and then sew up the side seams all the way up including the sleeve seam.

yes that is a good idea, and one I have seen in similar patterns with big or unusual sleeves.

Hi, now I think I know how to put on a photo of the pattern I can't find the site. That pattern is very similar to my one, but mine has longer sleeves. If I can't find it I will do as you both suggest. Thanks for your help.
