While out running errands this weekend, I just happened upon an estate sale that was winding up for the day. When I stopped, they were locking the doors but the people having the sale were kind enough to let me come in.
I found yards and yards of great vintage cotton fabric in all kinds of crazy bohemian prints.
Beautifully soft vintage cotton, the good stuff.
I have prewashed all of the fabric and making plans to use it.
My favorite is this neon bright paisley which I promptly set up to make a camp shirt using this Louise Cutting pattern.
So I wonder why the original owner never used these fabrics?
Everyone thought this particular fabric particularly hideous but this fabric is so me.

Well, I don't think it's hideous, but it needs to be the right piece of clothing and I think the camp shirt will look great. With darts or w/o? I haven't hit a good estate sale in years. Around here it's all dealers lined up from two hours before the thing opens and I'm just not gonna do that. Maybe end of the day is the hot ticket.
