Sunday Market...

The Sunday market in Nelson has always been a load of old tat...not worth the time to get there but on my way for a walk today I called in on a whim..I am glad I did. I found a stall run by one of the local interior designers, she had a table and a couple of baskets of material remnants...and they were cheap!

So, thought I would show you what I got....

This first material is actually a rather large curtain, I am guessing it was made before a minor flaw (some weird kind of rubbery stuff marks it down the bottom) was spotted. The curtain itself is about 2.5 metres long and over a metre wide...it is Sanderson..fabulous!!

This fabric is in two pieces in two colour ways...it is nice heavy fabric, about a metre of each.

This one looks better in real life, it is Sanderson as well.

This fabric is very pretty, quite a decent sized piece, it has butterflies and birds on it as well, the flowers are spectacular...the background is a dark fawny colour than the photo shows which is a shame...the photo is nicer than the real fabric!!

I found this set of two large lined curtains at another stall, I paid $5 for them, what a bargain!! Not sure if they will go in any of my rooms so may try and flog them off for a profit on Trademe!

Spoke to lots of the family today, Nanny, PoppyBlack and the old seadog..all are well. Mum and Dad are up in the North Island on a road trip and seem to be having fun so far.

Can't believe the weekend has gone already and another busy day of work is almost upon us, I will try harder to update this more regularly...I promise!!
