I still have a lot of projects in my upcoming list, and still sorting images to see what needs to be photographed.
But what I really want to do is something else.
I’ve got this fun retro space cadet fabric and I’m thinking it would go great as the fabric of a 40′s play suit, the kind with bra style top and shorts.
so the end of this story is that i ordered 8 yards, and am waiting for them to show up 
There are a few good online fabric retailers that have made me very happy over the years with their good selection and price.
lately I’ve been interested again in looking for vintage fabric, probably due to how happy I was with the fabric for the “50′s on 50′s” dress. but other than eBay, I’m really having a hard time finding fabrics of good vintage condition in lengths I’d need and the find of the fabric for the 50′s on 50′s dress was totally a stroke of luck!
I do kind of waffle back and forth on wanting to use vintage fabric, or not bothering with the hunt and expense because IMHO I’d rather spend that money on patterns and repro prints – or maybe that new pair of shoes or a hat!
I’d really love to hear if anyone has an opinion about or a shopping method regarding the vintage VS repro fabrics idea
