I can't resist temptation

Today I went to Borås and saw two exhibitions at the Textile Museum. One, which ends on sunday, was on (mostly female) underwear from the 18th century and til today. I saw some cool 18th and 19th century corsets and some other cool stuff. They also had an exhibition on folk costumes that was really nice. Then I looked at some lovely turn of the century dresses at their permanent exhibition. I was a good girl at the museum shop an only bought 3 metres of ribbon and 7 postcards. then I went to Knalleland the shopping area outside the centre of the town. I found a pink damask curtain at the Salvation Army's second hand shop for c. 5 $. Then I went to a store called Furulunds which has a pretty good selection of silk dupioni, some silk satins and even some silk damasks. I bought 70 centimetres of a red/black shot dupioni for the sleeves for my flemish gown. Then off to Saxylle the wool factory outlet where I was extremely good and only bought fabric from the 1,5$ per metre rolls, 7 metres (or there about, their metres are always very long) of dark navy very thin wool and 7 metres light grey thin wool to use as lining. I also ran into a woman from the SCA-group in Göteborg there, so I got company on my way home on the bus.
