What a great idea to buy unique fabric. I have a trip planned but fabric can be heavy.
l'll have to pace myself.

So much fabric to choose from, I took samples of each one to match up. In New Zealand, I had to package fabric up and mail it home. That's my next project.....only 4yrs after my visit!!?!

What a great way to remember your holiday. Better than buying tea towels or spoons which get put into a drawer and forgotten.

I have that fabric with the cars on it. I made some placemats out of it for a friend and her husband who travel a lot around Australia in their caravan.
