Here are some Vintage Sewing sites that I've stumbled upon!
This will probably be the highlight of my day.
https://www.thebluegardenia.com/
Here is a site that sells Vintage patterns from the 1920's to the 1960's.
They also sell jewelry as well.
I probably won't puchase any patterns from the site, as most of the patterns I want are out of my price range, but I can use the pictures from the patterns and taylor modern pattern to have that authentic vintage look and feel.

Pretty good selection of fabrics
Although I prefer to see/feel my fabrics before purchasing.

More Fabric options

Purse Designs

Wonderful silk selection at reasonable prices.
Japanese inspired dresses were popular in the 1940's.

Again, more fabric

Site for Vintage Patterns from 1900's to 1980's.
Again, many of the patterns are pricey.

Nearly done with the dress!
Wow, I am getting really excited about my dress.
All I have left to do is to finish up the bottom hem and stay stitch a few places by hand and Voila! I'll be done.
Hopefully here soon I will have some pictures to post of the finished project.
In other news, I am looking at possibly doing this dress for my next project. Please let me know what you think!
