I found these at the Eltham Brotherhood shop yesterday and was very pleased with myself. The 2 yards of orange spotted cotton ($3.50) is absolutely perfect for a quilted wall hanging I've been planning, but couldn't find the right fabric until now. The floral piece was $2.50. The white stuff $2.50)that looks like curtain fabric but was labelled 'food cover' has more uses to me and other friends who dabble with paints...great effects can be created with materials with holey patterns;-)
I don't know what happened about the article that was supposed to appear in the City Weekly magazine. I've been keeping an eye out for both the City Weekly and our local version of it, but I haven't seen any mention of me and opshopping. Have I missed out on it?? The journalist isn't answering my calls, and I never had a contact name or number for the photographer, so I have no way of finding out what is going on. Are you there Fourth Daughter??

Love the orange spotted fabric. I have been watching out for the article in the City Weekly. Any news of when it will be published?
Not an op shop, but did you know the massive fabric store up on Bourke St (near Pellegrini's) is finally going?
I bought some teal 60s pure wool fabric to recover my couch cushions. Cost $75, but well worth it!
They usually work a few weeks ahead so no doubt the article will be out soon.
