A few months back I started picking up vintage sheets at Goodwill and the local Y Thrift store...not really knowing what I would make with them, but knowing that the cost of the fabric per yard is beyond awesome! I haven't done much with them yet, and while I have some ideas I don't know what I'm going to do with the bulk of them. But I do know I like them and I won't feel horrible if I don't love something I've made from one of them!
The first thing I made was an old lady robe. I love it. It's pink. It has flowers. It's lightweight. Oh, and rick-rac. I love rick-rac! It's not perfect...but that's fine with me.

Here's a skirt I whipped out using one of my sheets! I really like it...but haven't worn it yet. I can blame the weather in part...but really I'm just not sure that it's totally "ME." I'm thinking I might wear it to school a day this week...weather permitting!
Other than a pair of pajama pants, the only other thing I've used my sheet stash for was the pillow backing for my Dresden plate pillow from
this post.
