Pretty vintage fabric

I was given a whole box of vintage goodness a few years back by a family that has been quilting for many years. Part of the stash included this pretty vintage print.

I have had it for so long and was unsusure of what to use it for.

I just love the tags that are still attached. On the back it is stamped: Cambric Printed Cotton. Made in Japan.

I think it is just asking to be made into my latest obsession; aprons.

Vintage Magazines - Online, and free!

Thanks to Little Jenny Wren, I have discovered an online resource that is truly awesome! Check out vintage Australian Home Journal issues (1949-1952) thanks to Internet Resource's American Libraries.

I'm interested in seeing vintage magazines, especially craft/home related ones, no matter where they are from in this world. I love the old patterns and recipes in them. I was given some British ones a few years ago, and the content is fabulous! Hmm. A future post perhaps?

Please go and check out Little Jenny Wren's blog. I do not know her, but I just love the darling little dolls she makes and the pictures of her home (Tasmania, Australia).
