No, not a Roxy Music reference! This Friday, Talent for Textiles is holding a sale at a new venue. The Avalon Textile and Decorative Fair will be held at the Abbey Barn in Glastonbury, Somerset. You can read all about the venue on Linda's blog here or Elizabeth's blog here.
I have been buying special bits to take with me. Here is a little preview for you.
A beautiful silk devore dress from the 1920's. It has a matching silk chiffon and devore jacket and very beautiful beaded detail.
A wonderful find, this is a vintage Master's gown, made from black taffeta.
Lots of lovely new fabrics including some Liberty, William Morris's Strawberry Thief
Some marching soldiers
Dekoplus children's fabric
Buckles?
1970's folky florals
Some pretty fat quarters
