Joann’s banditry

Joann’s is having a huge 50% off all the clearance again, and I made out like a bandit.

5 yards of camel wool, 2.50/yard – I’ll probably save this for a European something, and probably overdye it. 

But it also goes with, for my Persian garb – (I relaxed my standards somewhat to allow rayon, which is still cellulose, and still washable with care):

2 yards of 100% linen, rather a light pistachio – that’ll be salwar.  A tan 80/20 linen/rayon – the rayon is orange and dark brown accent thread woven through.    A linen/cotton machine embroidered all over with flowers that would be fun to overstitch.  Those two are the undercoats.  And a subtle shiny teal rayon coat fabric that wants a silk lining – decorated with a woven-in rectangular checkerboard interlaced with lotus, which reminds me of the reflecting pools in Persian gardens.

Total bill: $48.
