DellaJane Vintage Fabric: 1960's-1980's Vintage

It seems odd to call fabric from the 1970s and 1980s "vintage"! I'm offering an assortment of hard-to-find fabrics in limited amounts. Each fabric has been described as accurately as possible. Fiber content has often been determined using a burn test. Some fabrics are priced per yard, others by the piece. If you order more fabric than is available, excess payment will be refunded.
