Nice sourcing, Peggy. I haven’t seen the movie but this still made me nostalgic. (EYEPATCHES! Fuck yeah, early ’80s!!) Definitely want to learn how to make clothes from patterns someday. I would never ever ever spend $180+ on a frikkin’ rag rug, though. They used to be everywhere for around $20 each (made in sweat shops rather than by hipster craftsfolk, no doubt. I think they’re kinda hidious so I’ll be skipping that one, either way.)
