Today was one of those days - an accidentally productive day - I didn't intend to go charity shopping, I went straight to the mechanics to chat about my car...but it wasn't open so I popped into (one) of my favourite charity shops to pass the time.
I found these two beauties. The lady behind the counter thought they had been priced much too high and so slashed the price in half!
Both are Jonelle Duracolour fabrics; this one is called Greensleeves:
This one is Daisy chain.
This fabric is just so lovely - I couldn't believe my eyes, I rarely find such treasures.
Feeling lucky, I then decided to have a look in my next favourite charity shop. I found this delightful American double flat sheet,
a lovely hankie,
an array of pillow cases...
and a sweet little tea towel...
Lastly I snapped up this lovely hanger - perfect to hang my new summer dress on!
...oh happy days!
When I got home I put together a delicious dinner made from leftovers (had completely forgotten about feeding the family during my shopping spree/car mending adventures) - all in all, I'm feeling just a little bit pleased with myself today!
I hope you all had a productive day too.

oh what lovely finds! I feel quite sure I know that first pattern very well. Perhaps my Mum had curtains from this. Anyway it feels very familiar. I wonder what you will create with them! I'm about to go out on a bit of thrifting myself. Have a good weekend, Heather x
