maybe i am most excited about the fact that i am thrifting again for fabric to make the 2009 SWANclothing items from. ya! i shopped around at “regular” fabric stores, and sigh… nothing really. so off to the thrift behemoths. i missed it! and i’ve found some nice things to work from. i’ll mix & match with some new fabric.

i love the eyelet insert on this 80s light denim dress. the fact that it is a single clean inverted triangle of such a sweet romantic fabric. love it. i didn’t buy it but it plays into how i want to work with some of my fabrics for SWAN.
