Op shopping adventures

I've missed playing along with Sophie's Flea Market Finds and I have loads of bits and pieces that I've picked up over the past month. I really am trying to curb my op shopping addiction a little though. Today, it's all about linen, sheeting and fabric.
Gorgeous rose tablecloth!

Yellow and blue floral sheeting, red floral fabric remnant.

Yellow/green floral fabric remnant(LOVE) and brown floral round tablecloth, beautifully soft, made by Sheridan.

And this FANTASTIC bunch of quilting squares-10x10inch, 30ish squares at quick count. All for $1.50. I actually have a cushion in two of these fabrics in our front entry. It cost me $45.00 at a local homewares store. Can anyone tell me what this fabric range is?? I have spied it before in an online store.
 

 And finally, this pretty floral comforter. I am not sure if we needed this. I bought it at vinnies in Mossvale when we travelling home from holidays. I wandered through some shops for 45 mins thinking about it, umming and ahhhing..I really don't like to buy stuff just because..I have it on Lulu's cot at the moment. It's also made our reading corner a cosy space. When and if it isn't being used and loved enough, I'll donate it back:)

Hope you are having a lovely Sunday!
