Marked Original Filmdruck Indanthren
The barkcloth heard the call of the siren and came to me this week. I found quite a few pieces, however, nothing outstanding. Please excuse the pics, I took them while the fabric was drying on the line. I looked up Filmdruck and it simply means screen printing in German and Indanthren is a type of dye. Hmph, pretty banal. At least I know the fabric is German though.

It all goes on my modest barkcloth pile that I rarely touch...just look at.
It is comprised of a whole lot of flat-packed patterns of the female form, like a dress pattern, which are put together with special studs to create your own torso. Cool bananas!
Once I have put it together I will post a pic of the amazing..Form-o-matic! Pop over to Sophies for more Flea Market Finds.
OMG! That pile of barkcloth is amazing!

You must be over the moon - especially as its never been opened!!!!!!!!
