comfort shopping

Here are some lovely finds from today's op shop trip...

I love the rich blues and purples teamed with the brown.

Aside from the usual stuff today's big plan was to find some fabric and a pattern. I wanted it to be recycled, of course. And in order to make something pretty to wear to the gift shop launch this Friday night the pressure was on. Somehow I found 3 lovely large pieces of retro fabric and a pattern in my size and in a cute style. The pattern was only 50 cents!!!
....am not the fastest sewer and will need many tea breaks to cope but here's hoping it will come together in time...
