Made in Mexico, I snagged it at a church sale for maybe $1.00.
It came to a point at center front.
It had 16 gores.
It had pockets.
It was great for twirling.
It most likely was made in the 50s for the tourist trade.
When a senior in high school, I tried to replicate the fabric by hand loom. Not a success.
Jone Pasha, in Providence, thought maybe I could find the fabric in San Miguel d'Allende. So in 82, while on a huge road trip throughout Mexico, San Miguel was a required destination. They almost had it.
While sorting through my piles of fabric, I noticed some more recent acquisitions that come very close.
I would show you the other two textiles, BUT
Severo's Wall of Stuff is too daunting -- they're still stored up in that little loft area.
