Inspiration, Vintage Fabrics




Inspired by the sweet collection of vintage fabric remnants

so generously gifted to me by Kristen at Shabby Vintage Mom




Can you imagine my surprise and delight when I arrived home

to find this gift on my doorstep ?

I wasted no time ripping open the box

and getting excited about the lovely patterns and colors





I choose to create a ceramic dish in the same genre

using her color scheme as a thank you to send off to her.

Thank you Kristen
