Flea Market Frauleins, and a Fool for Fabric

Flea market stands in place for this F letter day on the A to Z challenge. Each month, a flea market is held up country Amador County, California, at the Italian Fairgrounds. 



Fugly - fabric that is ugly. Ok, some might not be ugly, but for my purposes, not useful as quilting material. I recently sent a sewing pattern wrapped in a TV series The Big Bang Theory cast and logo print material. I deal in so much fabric. I keep way too much fabric. Even though the quilt top below is very bright, it is one of my keeper projects.  Ah well, just call me a Fool for Fabric. 
Gigantic x blocks adorn this Just Look At Me flimsy. Flimsy, in quilter language, is just the quilt top without the backing and batting.

Hope Springs Eternal and Some of the Unusual

I am passing through the book eBay listing phase of the death pile. I hold out hope that someday I will find some 💰🤑 dolla dolla bills in a secondhand book, but have found none so far. 

I found this note in an origami book.


We shared souls
We stayed up late laughing and loving and each moment we shared was an eternity of perfect happiness, forever encased in my mind and heart.

A few images from a monthly flea market held up country Amador County. 





And a random share of a Seattle World's Fair pin from 1962 found at thrift. I am recollecting memorabilia from that event I attended when I was 2 years old. 

These Voodoo dolls were one of my favorite finds from last year.


And a few more images from another flea market held in El Dorado County.



Pattern of the Day is this 2007 Women with Wings costume.

Until we meet again.
