Fabric Finds


I love fabric like this,it reminds me of my childhood,although the colour scheme for our house was more orange and brown.
Picked this up at a garage sale on Sunday,destined to be cushions and a bag for me and maybe highlights for some little dresses for the shop.

Wow, I'm a bit jealous of that. Didn't mean to ignore you in the Etsy forums sorry - I'd left the building!

Hello from Newcastle, I love the fabric, it reminds me of my childhood and wallpaper and lava lamps and chrissy dolls. I also adore barkcloth that seems to mainly come in these kinds of designs. I went to a garage sale today and brought a really nice stash. have a great weekend.

WOW! So bright and cheerie....
Reminds me of kitchen curtains or the cushions on those wrought iron outdoor settings or swinging chairs. Can't wait to see what you make.

I've got this exact fabric! How bizarre to see it, I like the weight of this one, but haven't found the right thing to make yet, can't wait to see what you make with yours!
