Fabric scraps collection

£10.00

A small collection of (mostly) vintage cotton and linen fabric scraps, most of which have been hand-dyed with Procion, plus a few other vintage scraps that may include silk and a commercial print or two. Fabrics are mostly plain weaves, but some packs will contain decorative cutwork, tatting, or lace edging, all vintage and cut from table linens, napkins, handkerchiefs etc.

There are approximately 25-30 small pieces per pack, from about 5" x 7" to about 4-6" x 3-4", plus some very small scraps and sometimes a couple of vintage trims, ribbon, etc. Packs weigh (on average) between 70 and 80g.

Fabrics have been chosen randomly so these sets are not coordinated, but they are good for adding to your existing collection. Colours are predominantly greens, blues, browns, greys, and purples, plus in some cases white or tea-dye, and the odd brighter hue here and there. Photographs show representative examples of what you may receive; each pack is slightly different, and buying more than one pack may (or may not) result in some duplicates.

Good for all kinds of patchwork, fabric collage, experimental embroidery, slow stitch and textile art, plus various other crafts.

As with all my hand-dyes, I can't guarantee that anything is completely colourfast. Most of the fabrics are vintage and/or recycled, so expect frayed edges, signs of age and wear, seams or buttonholes, etc.

UK post will be standard first class; overseas shipping will be via Royal Mail International Tracked. If you'd prefer overseas economy shipping please let me know before purchasing so that I can create a separate listing for you.
