Well today I am going on a little expedition to have a look at some more vintage fabrics, linens and darling buttons. Some of these beauties will surely come home with me.
I enjoy my buying time, there is something about looking at fabric, in particular, and thinking on the spot what could I turn this into. It really is amazing, almost like the ready steady cook of the fabric world. Although I could probably come home with practically all of it, I do have to think price and what can be done. Sometimes I confess I see some fabrics and they are exquisite but I know with the finished product ( especially if framing costs are going on top) that It would be hard to sell, SO I sometimes buy and make something for our home instead with it.
Mostly all the fabrics have been washed and lightly ironed already so I can then label them with their cost and wrap them up and pop them in their rightful storage place......... which I seem to enjoy too!!
I then go and have a coffee out somewhere and write down my sums in my book.
So today I hope whatever you are doing you will have a very enjoyable day too.
HAPPY STITCHING!
You can't buy happiness
BUT
you can buy fabric and that is pretty close!!
