The fabric included about 2 yards of a heavy diaper flannel in dark blue, some kids prints most likely cotton by the feel and wrinkleability, yard and a half of cotton on a sunset print that will be shared with my swap buddy, and about 4 yards of a hawaiian brown on white print of lovely hula dancers and flowers. Im guesing the reason it was gifted to the goodwill is because the wahines are topless. Lol. Hubby said he claims it for a pareo, saying its the prettiest fabric ever. Definitely sharing some with swap buddy....
I sew old dacron and light sails on pretty much anything. No worse than denim. But say a storm jib or the new laminates with kevlar, carbon fiber or other aramids well then I drag the old industrial machine from the loft. The laminates need extra oomph and a wider stitch sewing through mylar/epoxy/fiber sandwiches.
oooo ties in a crazy quilt. Good idea, DH has boxes of his dads ties ( older styles, prints, stained) i always wondered
What to do with them.
the wealthier the marina the better, i scored nice acrylic glasses and dishware with non skid bottoms last week. Not a scratch on them. the lady on J dock hired designers to redo her interior. I guess they were from her.
