My current re-commitment to Fake Burda 6401 led me to decide to finally use a silly vintage automotive print fabric I thrifted in 2014.
I do not regret this decision.

When I found the surprise assortment of yardage at the regular thrift store a few months ago, I further surprised myself by actively liking a brown-based print so much. But I did like it!
And there was a decent amount of it--more than enough to be the main fabric in another Gunne Sax style dress! I already had several other prints to coordinate with it, too.
Except...
I realized last week that I've only been making those--and a lot of the other dresses over the last year--because they're fun to make, and not because I actually want to wear them.
So,what do I want to wear? It didn't take much reflection to realize it was Fake Burda 6401, with no trim or ruffles--tiers are fine, but ruffles are pushing it too far toward Gunne Sax froufrou.
So! That's what I made with most (but definitely not all) of the brown print.
And I like it!
I made another Halloween Patchwork Project! And it's another tiered patchwork skirt!
There's really not much more to say about it!
...which won't keep me from saying more, of course...
