Looky what I found!


So the other day I was off tarting around at my mums place. We quite frequently go there when I have just had enough of the mess at my place and want to share the wealth of the Aphid's creativity with others. Anywho, I was poking around and came accross this:


Isn't it the most glorious bit of vintage fabric?! I am so in lurve! The story goes that my late grandma purchased it for my ma to make something pretty for one of us girls. True to form it was misplaced, and said pretty-ness was never created. It's a full, untouched piece of sweetness and I'm going to use it as my tablecloth when I do the Handmade Expo in November (fingers crossed)!

So make sure you come and pay respects to this vintage find when you visit MOI at the Markets!

I remember Mum made us dresses out of exactly the same fabric (except the dogs were blue), for my Aunty's wedding (on my Dad's side), when we were in primary school.

You're kidding?! I wonder if grandma bought it for her too? At least I know now the age of it. It must have been for Rach or Me.
