Yesterday after leaving work (on fridays I leave at 15h), I decided to go to Feira dos Tecidos at Moscavide. I had a plafond of 10 euro. Not much, but I managed to bring something.
I decided to "dive" literally on those boxes of stashes, where the meter is around €1,70 and €2,50. The truth is that I'm making summer blouses and the fabrics that they have there are mostly winter. First I chose about 8 pieces of stash, but in the end it was more than I could afford. I had to make a selection, and I brought these. They were my favorites.
I confess that when I chose them I didn't had any model on my mind. I still don't know what I'm going to do with them. But I know that sooner or later I'll come up with something.
The truth and the good news are that with 10 euro I brought fabric enough to make 3 or more blouses. And I know that if I went to a store to buy, I wouldn't spend less than 15 or 20 euro in one single blouse. In a crisis time, there has to be alternatives...
In a few months I'll go back there to see if I can find more fabric.
