Yay, the cooler weather is here for us in Australia. The cardigans are out and I have gone poncho crazy.
In the 1990s, I designed a simple South American style poncho that was reversible and made from vintage fabrics. They sold like hot cakes and I have worn the one I made for myself every winter since. On the look out for a replacement poncho I was ever so happy to find this beauty.

| 1960s Poncho from Blue Bird Vintage |
Purchased from the Vintage Vixen and Vamp Fair from the lovely Deb of Blue Bird Vintage.
So it is back to the designing table for me as I am to adapt my original poncho design to a shorter style. Oh the possibilities. Hopefully you will see my new designs soon.
