oh great finds, and I must say I did like the very bold coloured IKEA piece!. . can't wait to see the kitchen dresser.
Love the fabrics, you scored well!
I can think of a few projects with the last one!
That parisian motif one is the absolute bomb, and I really like the Ikea one as well! Love that virtual cat you've got too :)

love it all, especially that bold print by ikea - don't they just have the best fabrics and they are so reasonably priced - reminds me of the old marimekko fabrics - i would love to find a stash of those! thanks for sharing! have a great week! xo c
Hi Irene.
Could you please e-mail me on mskaale@hotmail.com. I have mixed up on the auction! It is a bit embaresing, so please mail me. :)
Have a greate saturday :)
I am obsessed with vintage fabrics, I just purchased a whole bunch of remnants the other day and was pleasantly shocked to find one of them a plaid Hermes blanket! Some nut had cut it in two which actually makes 'them' the perfect size for lap blankets in our old Rover. $4 for TWO Hermes lap blankets, not a bad day!
Tell us more about that cabinet! Is that stained glass??
Love all your fabrics, especially that French monuments one. I think you have inspired me to do a post.
Thanks and have a lovely day!
Hi Irene, just divine. I adore the first bark cloth but the gold on cream polished cotton is to die for. I'd love that in a dress... I'm having a ginger beer and fresh lime juice and loads of ice. It's hot here today in Sydney. Pruxxx
There are some beautiful fabrics there... I am also a bark cloth girl at heart! Your work in progress is a beauty! I don't have any room left at my place for more 'fixer uppers'... I will have to finish some to make room for more!
Great show and tell, Irene! those Ikea fabrics are fabulous - not everyone's taste I know, but I find them very cheerful. Love that gold on cream too...well, love them all!
