When I bought mine at Houston in the early 1990s, you had to know which booth to go to, who to talk to, and secretly look thru the bin kept under the table. It was like going to a speakeasy...."Joe sent me."!!

It was specially hand done stuff, not a major manufacturer's. 8-)

Here's a great site with some really LOL nudies from those mud flaps . . . remember those mud flaps?

Should I be embarrassed that I have some fabric like that?

Nope! I love this fabric....

I have so LMBO at this thread. Just love it!

I like the Round Robin idea.

So many generally good ideas for this quilt on here. Mannem's quilt is great. Love the penis fabric mentioned, the silver women fabric... just love it all. Hilarious! So gonna have to tell DH about this one.

Reminds me of the quilt I made for one of my brothers. I used the Alexander Henry pin up girls type fabric. I used the one with the girls on motorcycles with mini skirts, short shorts, stilleto heels. Maybe Alexander Henry has a 70's version with white go go boots...

That was more or less my idea too. I have, somewhere, some pattern books of my mothers' from the 1930s, and they have several graceful black outline and full black figures advertising the clothing. Actually they are lovely, wish I knew where I'd put them for safety.

That would be lovely with that collection of fabrics you have.

Or maybe a few Victorian corsets, black satin...no, it's supposed to be from the naughty 1970s..peace signs, bell bottoms, free sex, granny glasses, Volkswagen buses with painting all over them, Nauru jackets, jeans with the inside seams cut out and totally ugly fabric sewed in to make a skirt, earth shoes, smoking mary jane (and I don't mean a girl), long hair for both sexes, long mustaches (on anyone who could grow them) always protesting something or other with a lot of screaming companions with big hand lettered signs, no one seemed to hold down a job, unless they had parents who sent them money to stay away, or were on welfare.

Come to think of it, the 70s weren't very sexy, (perhaps sexy and pornographic are two different things here) and I seem to have worked at home with my kids and DH and we totally missed out on whatever "fun" that was supposed to be happening then.

Better confirm just what kind of sexy porn from the 1970s this guy is talking about. Check to see if he is old enough to remember those days. Watch a movie that he might have to loan you.


The most pornographic, obscene thing in the 70's was the Vietnam War. I bet that's not what he wants.

How about illustrating a scene from "Oh, Calcutta!" or use some photos from Woodstock? Bond girls? Go-Go girls in boots, bra and micro-mini skirt? Goldie Hawn all painted up on "Laugh-In"?
