YUM. FABRIC.

OM.

NOM.
NOM.
It's sheer linen, with gold and green silk as the stripes. AND there are four yards of it. AND it cost me three bucks. AND it is vintage. (Seriously though, is it tacky to say how much something cost? I'm just a cheap person who likes good deals, I don't want to look like I am bragging. Nobody likes to read that.) So, I am thinking late 18th/early 19th c gown, or maybe something Downton Abbey-esque?

Blue and White/Help Me!

I can't help it- I love blue and white together! On our recent trip to Williamsburg, I couldn't resist this blue and white roller-print cotton, partially because it matches the dishes I bought at Target! (seriously, how cool is target!?)



I love it!





It just begs to be a pet-en-l'air! I even did a quick mock up of the back to see how much I liked it. The only problem is, I have two yards. Do you all think that will be enough, if I piece where necessary and make it short? Opinions please!

Blue!

So, being too lazy to post about any of the seemingly hundreds of projects I've been working on (anybody else feel that spring is awful for CADD?!), I decided to post some pictures of a few blue gowns I really love. The first two are from the KCI, I believe... I'm not good about keeping up with sources. Just for fun, I put links to fabric that looks similar to the gowns. Click the pictures! :)
