I found some really cool paisley!

So all the thrift stores had half price sales last weekend (for the holiday) and I found several chunks of cool paisley velveteen. I made this from one of them...the other fabric is a real dark brown velveteen...and the lining is all Linen! 3 bucks for enough fabric to make a hat & bag set.. with leftovers! YAAAY!




...soon to be the matching hat!

 

aw that is sweeeeeeet....
that bag is too cute!

 

its very very cute!!! I like it

 

wow, I absolutely love love love that fabric.

 

I love all things paisley!!

 

Finished the hat!

 

Breathtaking!!!

 

Wow, that's cool... the thrift stores in your area sell fabric?

 

VERY Nice

 

Yeah, most thrift stores have some fabric but I mostly look for clothes made from corduroy or velveteen ('cuz I like the texture as much as the color)...clothes usually have the fabric content listed on the label so I know the cord is all cotton...and velveteen is always cotton...and velvet is always synthetic. I like to use only natural fabrics and can usually find unusual ones that can't be found in expensive fabric stores. Plus, I'm supporting a business that benefits charities by recycling and I'm recycling it again!

 

its cool. i little dull for me... i like BRIGHT
