Sunday Stash #68

I've got a thing for stripes at the moment.  Regardless of color it is all about the stripes.


 These stripey fabrics are reclaimed vintage bed linens (washed and re-washed for my peace of mind) ready for recycling.



Purchased from Whimsie Dots on Etsy.

Enjoy Sunday!

    These fabrics are so cool! Love the pictures. Sometimes I like to use a strip for the binding...if the quilt wants it.

    I love the way fabric fetishes creep up on you! I am still into birds myself.
    I had a flannel sheet when I was little that was pastel strips and I love it, some of the fabric you show reminds me of those innocent days
    You have the best stash!
