1970s Fabric Finds...

I had some good finds today in a Hospice shop, just tucked away enough that not everybody knows about it!  A whole batch of St. Micheal 1970s duvet covers, sheets, pillow cases and bed cover.  I will use some of it for tea cosy linings, but I am really coveting that Selina Lake, Homespun Style look, and plan to re-create a bit of it at home!!  Her new book is so inspirational; I am bidding on some vintage wall papers as we speak...

    1. Hi Samantha, welcome to blog land. I've just discovered vintage bedding too and it's very addictive. Been making mine to wonderful bunting and curtains for our shed........ And the wonderful thing is that there is loads left!
