Much to good to waste

I am such a cheapskate and cannot waste any nice old fabric...

Found at the thrift last week a 30s depression era dress, very torn and damaged but I am sure I can cut some decent sized pieces from this dynamic seersucker.




another 40s home made dress, but only half a dress! nice pink and blue paisley smooth cotton.





and finally my own 1970s Liberty tana lawn dress that I have altered twice, washed a million times and finally wore out under the arms.

  3. That seersucker is lovely,
    I love that you have saved it and are planning to reuse/recycle/refashion it.
