Poor Mr. Pete

Just imagine this scene .... JudyPete and Mr. Pete are sitting at a restaurant table (say at an ordinary place like Starbuck's) and a group of five or six business guys walk in and sit down for a brief coffee break - lunch kind of thing. JudyPete stares at them as they walk by her table (much to the embarrassment of Mr. Pete) for she is staring far too long ......... at their shirts! LOL Would she be that interested when she walked into an ordinary quilt shop? Probably not.

I suspect that for JudyPete the search for these gently used fabrics is part of the fun of using them. She has incredible luck at finding vintage Singers at garage sales (her radar for old sewing machines is awesome!!) and this talent extends to shirting fabrics as well. I once briefly tried to imitate this kind of searching in Ohio and all I found were cotton/poly blends. I guess the 100% cottons stopped at her side of the Mississippi. :-)
