bits and bobbins

thrift(finds).

found this week and last, at my usual secondhand haunts here in san francisco.

looks handmade:

a restyled this one a bit, by shortening it and then elasticating the hem. it bubbles nicely now:

i love the ruffles on the sleeves:

my favorite find of the week…just the most perfect colors, and lusciously large supergraphics:

   Great finds as usual!!! I particularly like the yellow top and acid green outfit and the colouful stripy bag!
   The Italian in the Michelangelo quote in your previous post is wrong: “Ancora Imparo” is the right spelling, just thought I let you know!

   O Fortuna, both dresses are ooze fabulous-ness. The mandarin collar on the second piece is a beautiful touch to the rather mod print.

   i really love that yellow top and the collar on the last dress. i’ve been searching for something with a collar like that lately.

   Love the thrift finds, as usual. The bag is awesome–I love how the quilt lines play off the straight up & down of the pattern. Very cool.
