One of my favorite skirts when I was growing-up (1970s) was made by my
Grandmama from chintz. It had a beautiful floral pattern that worked
well as a dirndl skirt. She also made a little shawl out of
coordinating chintz that she trimmed with white lace. When I wore this
outfit with a white peasant blouse, it looked like folk costume!
