pretty pretty prints

wow. i guess i've been a bit quiet on the blog this week. huh?

well, there's been plenty of work going on behind the scenes.

i've been hunting down some vintage prints for my next collection

and sketching and cutting and sewing...and making a big ol' creative mess.

and spendin lots of time stalking certain vintage pretties on ebay.

i just acquired the floral you see up top and i tend to get a little distracted during my searches and came across some of these lovely vintage tea towels.

this one reminds me of the sunny tinytopia.

and you know i can never get enough of the pirate ships

and i just love the detailing on these flowers.

anyways, i was a good girl and i only bought the fabric yardage, 

but i think the towels are such a great source of inspiration. 

you gotta love ebay. just never know what you'll find.

enjoy the rest of your weekend.
