Oh Sally, where do you find these? And who says you can't be a designer? When you find a manufacturer to take you on, I'll take a bolt of each! I'm happy that I have a new mission when I peruse my favorite antique stores now. I'm always on the lookout for conversationals for Sally!
OMG!! Those fabrics are divine. What a wonderful collection you have going on!
Hi Wendy and Rhonda,
Aren't they wonderful? I'm afraid I've become obsessed!
