craft, fabric stash, sewing

Share your stash week – Thursday

June is the mother/mother-in-law of one of my favourite couples (who are also Stella’s godparents).  When June moved into a retirement village, she didn’t have room to take her fabric stash. For many years June had most of her clothes made to measure by a dressmaker, so bought dress lengths of fabric whenever she found ones that she liked.  Lucky me – much of her fabric stash is now part of my fabric stash!  They are all beautiful quality fabrics, many John Kaldor.  I’ll share some of them over the rest of the week.

June's stash 1 by you.

I love these three!  The top and bottom fabrics appear to be polished cotton; the centre fabric is also cotton in a fairly open weave.  It’s quite transparent.

June's stash 3 by you.

These three appear to be linen/cotton fabrics.  Each piece is at least three metres; often four.

More from June’s stash tomorrow!  Many of these fabrics date back to the eighties (possibly earlier).  Thanks again to Mikes for hosting Share Your Stash.  Thanks also for all the lovely comments on the previous post about Dad’s woodwork – he is VERY chuffed!
