I am so pleased with some antique 1920's fabric I got off EBay - and I didn't pay a crazy price, it is so yummy, but now I am stuck what to use it for - my first idea was a pillow, but it's so beautiful, and I don't know if it will stand up to my boys. The color is more like the first photo, like a silver green.I also have my eyes on some other vintage pieces, but I don't want to pay too much for them.
This Friday is my dear cousin Antonia's wedding to Ivor. She
actually lives and works in Washington DC, but her wedding is in England. I am so unhappy that we just could not swing going home to be there, but we are going to meet up on the 30th when they come back from their honeymoon in Cape Cod. I spent mine at the Cliffside Inn, Newport, RI http://www.cliffsideinn.com/. It was once owned by an artist called Beatrice Turner. It was a very lovely place. She was very talented, and I seem to remember that alot of her paintings were destroyed after her death as nobody wanted them.Friday is also the first day of the Monroe's Historical Society Textile Sale - I hope to finish work a little early, so I can get to it at 5pm, with Joshua under my arm - can't you just see me now. My DH must think I am getting a little crazy over fabric, but what's new?
Stay turned to find out what I find!
