Inspiration | Vintage fabric
I am designing our 2009 holiday collection at the moment and I have been spending a fair amount of time researching vintage Christmas graphics. During this process the other day I stumbled upon this Flickr stream of some extraordinary vintage fabric. Here are some of the amazing graphics that I found there. As I trolled through the images it became apparent to me that this Flickr user is also an artist/crafter. I eventually found myself on her Etsy site where she transforms all this wonderful vintage fabric into bags and pouches which I have featured for you on the next post.

This final image is the one that orinally caught my eye - dancing leaves - how strange and beautiful!
