I bought nearly all the fabric she had at the very first sale we stopped at. Gobs and gobs of vintage 1940-ish roses everywhere. There were 2 panels of these curtains;
Nearly 9 yards of this print, which reminds me of my tablecloths;
the sweetest vintage duvet cover with tiny roses all over (it needs to be mended on the bottom, but I have to get the sewing machine repaired still);
and several pieces of smaller fabrics like barkcloth and decorator weight fabrics. So good. Really.
I also picked up this tiny cornucopia vase (I had just been admiring Barbara's small collection );
an old hatbox covered in wallpaper (all of my pictures are leaning lately, a bit bothersome!);
and something that made me squeal, a big pile of nutcups for crafting.And there was more. One is being painted right now and I will try and get the rest onto Flickr as soon as Jack stops launching cat toys in the living room. LOL
I had better go get out the duct tape. :-)
That is really some beautiful fabric. I love the vase it is really unique.

ReplyDeleteGreat fabric! And the nut cups! Sorry if I got another collection started...that's a really sweet vase!
ReplyDeleteThose craft cups are a riot! Awesome colours.

ReplyDeleteI love the pretty pastels of the nut cups. I remember getting those in school at our parties. Memories.....;o)
ReplyDeletegood grief! what a great haul!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the nut cups, and of course; the fabric. I don't know which is more astonishing--the fab stuff you always come across, or the fact that you keep finding room in your house to put it all! lol.
ReplyDeletewow, you really scored! awesome fabrics, and i love the little craft cups :)
ReplyDeleteOh I am totally Jealous! Great fabric. I can't wait to see what you are painting.
ReplyDeleteWhat great fabrics and finds you have there! Wow those nut cups are great! Do they still make them in colours? What a find if they don't!!!
ReplyDeletePS. the Martha show I saw the doily bowls on was several months ago but I only just found the product yeserday, I didn't think it was available in Australia until I finally found it!
Score! What great fabric finds. And those nutcups. Oh dear.
ReplyDeleteWOW! what a lot of really great stuff, LOVE all the fabric. I am going to a big estate sale tomorrow, so hope to get some great stuff! OH and the nut cups, I have been looking for them too, they sell for too much on ebay, maybe I will luck out one of these days!
ReplyDeleteNut cups! Can you hear me squealing, too?
ReplyDeleteNUT CUPS! What a funny word (and a fabulous find!!) I love all the fabric, too. Glad you found a worthwhile sale. The gas thing is crazy, at least I have good public transportation but it doens' take me to flea markets or thrift stores! LOL
