Love Retro and Vintage Fabric ?

Do you, like me, love Retro and Vintage Fabric ?
But find it hard to buy, and some times the original pieces are very small,
more suitable for craft projects than dress making .
Look no further John Lewis has developed an amazing
range to celebrate their 150 year anniversary.

They have collaborated with designers and searched archives
to produce a fabulous range of retro and vintage dressmaking 
and furnishing fabrics. Sadly they do not seem to be available on line !
(expect for some furnishing fabrics ) 
But at the Bluewater branch and the Oxford Street store,
you will be spoilt for choice. The fabric is around
the £16.00 per meter mark, but taking into consideration
how hard it is to find decent quantities of original
fabric, plus postage etc, Yes ! I feel a fabric shopping trip coming on.
