And a fabulous time was had by all!
Well, it felt that way!
Camperdown is a sleepy little country town that really wakes up when the Cruise is on.

How great is this two-tone Beetle, complete with vintage luggage on the roof?
The winner of the Pin-Up Competition, Miss Amelia Mae.
My favourite vintage dealer (and a good mate) Christine, from Classic Vintage based in Mittagong.
Check out the fabric on some of her dresses!
I love that she takes the time to colour co-ordinate, as well as writing the bust/waist measurements on the price tags.
Our Swing Dancing teacher Bruce, and his partner Dean.
One of our friends in her killer ‘Map of Tassie’ skirt, made out of a vintage tea-towel.
For all the non-Aussie’s out there, here’s a link to what it means…
And finally, a quick sneaky peaky of some of things I came home with:
From the upper left: 50’s acetate, 1940’s cotton (six meters!), tea towels from the 1940s and 50s, more fabric and some knitting books I don’t have yet.
I hope you like the photos!

You look great! I love your giant Lucite brooch. I have one of my own and got it for a steal. I don't think the seller realize what she had.
