I’ve been working in the sewing room and I’ve found lots of things that need to go! So it’s time for a virtual garage sale.
Today, I’m listing vintage fabrics. I love these! Actually, I love them too much. I’ve never been able to cut into them. I have noted sizes and condition for each item. Prices do not include shipping.
Here is the fine print. I will only sell and ship to addresses within the US. I take payment via PayPal. If you would like an item, send an email to me at sew4given@ aol.com and include the item number and your zip code. I will then send a PayPal invoice with shipping costs added. If payment is not made within 24 hours of invoicing, item will be marked available for next buyer.
1. Okay, I did actually use a piece of this for the back of a small quilt. But I’m selling the rest. This is 45 inches long and the fabric width is 36 inches. There is a small spot where a paper label had been. It is unwashed. $6 Sold

3. This is a lot of three pieces. The green satin measures 31 by 17 inches. The purple satin is 2 yards by. 17 inches. The green silk (?) is 45 inches wide and is over three yards. It is gorgeous. All vintage. The satins are heavy. $16
4. This is 38 inches wide and 3 3/4 yards long. I’m not certain of fabric content. It is light weight and the burn test shows no poly. $12

I have more vintage fabrics that I will list in another post immediately following this one (these posts get too long quickly!). I’m happy to combine lots to save shipping.
If anyone in Michigan is interested in vintage toy sewing machines, let me know. I plan to sell at least half of my collection and I’d rather not ship.
Thanks! Have a great day!
