I was delighted to find this lovely retro Heals 'Summer Glory' cotton barkcloth fabric on eBay.
The piece I bought is 45" wide and 30" long (though there is weaving knot at 24" which was explained by the seller before I bought it). My current plan is to make a dust cover for my sewing machine with this fabric, and then use whatever is left for a pencil case and other small items.
Linking up with Magpie Monday at Me and My Shadow.
