I SCORED.
These 70s dresses most with the shop tags still attached were in one shop I had been there that morning and they were not there luckily I went again in the arvo (well I had to drive past anyway) all are in great condition just need a wash (after I remove tags and tags will be readded after).One dress had a twin that I was going to buy till I saw the moth holes in back of the top (should have bought it to make a skirt) Lady wouldnt drop the price said they would fix it (wont happen as they wont be able to and they wont bother I bet)Also one chinese inspired childs dress.Most are super long.Saw the brown and creme one first (2nd from left) Sorry pics arent great will redo soon.

oh great finds! you sure have a lot more energy than I do, all that sewing, knitting, washing, wow!!
I've been experimenting with a bit of 'jewellery' knitting.... mmm.... may or may not work, I'll keep at it for a bit longer.
I have Miss 11 gr'daughter arriving Sunday so less computer time, as holidays is the only time she gets to Blog on her own blog. You'll need to follow her I think to find out what we've been up to all week.
I really enjoyed this grouping of items. I could think of ten things to do with each one! No worries about responding, if fact I'm delighted to hear that you read all of us! It's just fun to see what you will post after each shopping adventure. TWN =^,^=
