Happy Easter!

Hope everyone had a good Easter. We did! It's always nice to share special meals with family members, though we did miss our oldest daughter & her family.
I've been sewing pillowcase dresses again. This time, I'm also making doll dresses to match; they fit the 18" dolls. They are listed on eBay right now; I need to add them to my selling blog.

Vintage Fabrics For Sale

Good Morning! Isn't the month of June flying by? We've had a lot of family activities going on. Our oldest DGS graduated from high school; DH & I attended his graduation and Open House. Four of the DGKs who live in area have been spending a lot of time here. We have video games and TV on in most rooms of the house. It's noisy, but it's so nice to have them here.
I'm still working on my detash of vintage fabris. I had slowed down as I'm also selling newer fabrics, but it's time to get back to this.
Here are two photos of some lots I put together. I have some fabrics liated in my salling blog, bur you can always conract me. I am also putting together mystery boxes for eBay listings.

My Pillowcase Dresses

Our weather has been so pretty lately. Hope yours has been too! I've been sewing away. For years I wanted to try a pillowcase dress, so finally did. I made the 1st four out of dotted swiss fabric from my mother's stash. They are truely one of a kind! I also found the cutest pink & brown print and a sweet rose print. My DD loves it and wants one for Meagan, who is 2 1/2. I make them in sizes 3 mos. to 5. I'm listing them in my selling blog, if anyone is interested.


Here is a photo of my pretty models, my youngest two DGDs.

Vintage Fabric Lots

Our weather has been nice today, not cold, not hot. Guess I should have stayed outside, lol. But I did do errands, so didn't stay inside all day. I have been busy, taking photos of lots of vintage fabrics. I have some listed on eBay right now, but do have more to list. Right now, I'm concentrating on the cotton blends -- there are dotted swiss, trigger, polished cotton, cordoroy, cotton knits, organza, and who knows what else? I'm selling these fabrics, cheap, cheap. They could be used in crafts, as Market Bags, as clothing, even in quilts -- if you don't use all 100% cotton. These are unwashed and have been stored in a pet-free, smoke-free home. They are from the 50s to 90s. Just contact me for a price and more photos.

Listing vintage fabrics.....





I've been working in stored boxes again. There is way too much fabric, so I'm starting to list them. I'm starting off with the vintage ones. Some I had in storage; some I inherited from my mother. I have them listed on eBay, etsy, and will be listing in Raggy Anne blog daily. If you are looking for a particular color or weight, let me know. The bottom photo is a flannel with a neat border; the middle photo is a lighter weight cotton; the top photo is a cotton blend.

eBay and etsy auctions

I've been busy listing on both eBay and etsy. My DH & I emptied a storage building; we've had it so long we could have probably bought a new one, lol. In it, I found fabrics from the 60s thru the 80s. I've been washing fabrics and listing every day. Haven't sold very much; but at least it's a start.
I've also been babysitting Meagan. Her mom, Janice, is now selling both Avon and Tupperware. She hands out flyers with all 3 ventures together -- Avon, Tupperware and raggy items. If anyone needs anything, fill out the Contact Me form at bottom of my blog and I will send her e-mail addy.
Here are two of my fabrics:
