This is made from a thrifted sheet, with the addition of little fabric flowers in pink, red, and cream hand-sewed along the edge of the hem. The rest of this sheet is in Lisa C.'s swap. Sorry, the other parts don't have this fun edge!

There's a 1937 mural in the Redondo Beach Post Office, mounted way up above eye level, so the angles here aren't great, but this is a series of photos to document it.
