a love affair



I love church fetes!
I love vintage fabrics!
I love vintage prints!
also have a thing for vintage pillowcases!
for the princely sum of $2.. the lot ..WOW !
Absolutely gorgeous prints..I think a couple are Liberty ?




The little old lady thought the silk lined patchwork jacket would "look lovely on you, my dear! "


The clairvoyant in me is saying it will look much better deconstructed and sewn up into a gorgeous quilt!


What little treasures did you find this weekend?
