Some of my favorite prints are from the 1960's and 70's. Think back to what you were wearing when you watched H.R.Puff-N-Stuff and the Bugaloos. LOL (Sid and Marty Krofft thought up some crazy wacked out shows, didn't they?). These fabrics just make me smile! I have a few on the website this week if you feel like adding one of these happy fabrics to your stash.

Fabulous Flea Market Fabric Finds!
I went to one of my favorite flea markets over the weekend. Its an all antique and vintage market held in Indiana the first Sunday of every month. I ALWAYS find something fabulous, and this month was no exception.
Next I found 2 fabrics from the 1940's. One is about 4 yards and the other 5 yards!
And just before they started packing up for the day, I spied these wonderful feedsacks. They're all in really nice condition, too! The Hawaiian surfer/hula dancer one is so cute!
First, I found 2 lovely floral hankies... (love the lily of the valley one!)
A few booths later, I found 3 monogrammed hankies. I'm pretty sure these are Madeira.Next I found 2 fabrics from the 1940's. One is about 4 yards and the other 5 yards!

I'm afraid most of the outdoor flea markets around here will be winding down this month. :(
Hmmm...maybe its time to plan a road trip.
I hope everyone had a fun and safe weekend!
