mad about vintage...

This is the first of a few of my recent vintage fabric purchases. It's off an Etsy seller in Australia and is completely insane. It makes your eyes go really funny if you look at it for too long as all the patterns are really small scale. It is printed to look like patchwork and judging by the odd shaped piece of fabric I recieved, it may have once been an item of clothing - very scary thought.


Anyway, I totally love it (I wouldn't wear it though). Separate each of the patterns and you have some really lovely retro and vintage designs. Perfect!


More vintage purchases to show you soon...

P.S. thanks for all the comments and links on the last post, much appreciated xxx
