    <description><![CDATA[<p><a href='http://craftingagreenworld.com/files/2009/03/sari-skirt.jpg'><img src="http://craftingagreenworld.com/files/2009/03/sari-skirt-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1433" /></a>We posted <a href="http://craftingagreenworld.com/2009/02/17/fab-fabrics-vintage-kimono-fabric-from-shibori/">a few weeks ago about vintage Kimono fabric</a>, and it got me thinking about other vintage fabrics that you could repurpose for crafty use.
