I must admit that the few I've been to have been a tad disappointing - racks of Primark, 1980s polyester and the few things I've loved have been way out of my £10 price range. Fairs in your neck of the woods seem loads better.<br />Your finds look gorgeous, can't wait to see everything modelled and on your banging bod.<br />Your little fashionistas are just gorgeous and I love the fried egg skirt so much.<br />My favourite maxi skirt pattern is a 1971 one by STYLE and easy peasy. If I find another it's yours. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-43398619300062364312012-02-06T00:54:32.282-08:002012-02-06T00:54:32.282-08:00Love your fried egg skirt!

Can't wait to see what it is.<br />I loved that original Mary you showed us, but now I'm not so sure...I think they look like they've been through some sort of mumification process. The way they're hanging on the wall reminds me of a bird of prey, I even think there is something of the vampire about them, hmmmm...Kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258543009688502584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-979065300320488992012-02-05T15:10:13.376-08:002012-02-05T15:10:13.376-08:00I'll have a look for you today as I'll be ...I'll have a look for you today as I'll be going through my patterns anyway.xx.Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565814556356447975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-36980163316273420212012-02-05T15:03:02.826-08:002012-02-05T15:03:02.826-08:00I'm very taken with your fried egg skirt!
