Dig out our scraps and use up those oldies but
Who remembers these? Definitely from the early 90s. They were all the same - "calicos" - little flowers. And although it's hard to tell in these pictures, these are all that ole favorite - dusty rose.
So, cut them really small and pair them with Kona Cotton White and they start to look better.
These will become a toiletry bag and a cosmetic bag. The small bag 2 pieces are set 6x9, and the larger bag 2 pieces are 8x12. A total of 300 pieces, 2 zippers and 2 linings.
I'll work on it some more this week, in between some other projects that are slowly getting done, and I'll soon have a pink matching set for these:

Looking good!
I do remember the dusty rose calicoes. They look so much better mixed in and used up. Great work!
I think I have some of those calicos hiding in my stash. They add so much when paired up with the solids.
Great way to use up those oldies.
I've got a few of those in my pile of pinks this month too! Great idea to put them with solids. Your bags look great.
I love those bags. What a great idea for using scraps and for getting ready for gifting.
Oh I remember dusty rose and mauve! Boy that white really makes them look so modern!
Uber cute!
Your pinks will make another pretty bag.
I do remember those fabrics. You made them look awesome.
I've been cutting into my mauve and dusty pink calico and large florals. You're right. Kona white makes everything look better.
