It seems suprising given the empire she has now but in one of her books(I think its 'In Print') she does describe how she goes looking for vintage fabrics in junk shops and car boot sales on a very regular basis. I've often looked at the vintage cushions she has for sale in her shops mixed in with the new stuff and thought to myself that she must have staff that go out buying the fabric for her. Obviously not! At least she left a little bit for you.Nonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071061655794919090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4637229002646626595.post-30861750782928997692007-11-27T20:34:00.000+00:002007-11-27T20:34:00.000+00:00Hi Lucy,What very pretty finds, the mirror is love...Hi Lucy,<BR/>What very pretty finds, the mirror is lovely and I like the flower trim you have added.

Now I had some fabric similar to that on the left until recently!

I hope that lady does let you have first choice on the material, let's face it CK probably doesn't really need it, she is just being greedy! I think you did very well with your finds over the past few days. We have stayed near and have visited Marlborough, it is a beautiful town, we had a lovely lunch in one of the pubs there and a couple of drinks in one of the trendier establishments. I look forward to seeing what fabulous makes you knock up with the material. xLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03800196831833931842noreply@blogger.com
