Showa Retro Fabric Scraps, Large Sizes Available These fabrics were stored at my parents' house. They belonged to a relative who worked as a dressmaker, and I believe they are from about 40 to 50 years ago. They have the characteristic smell of old items. It seems the smell can be reduced by sun-drying. These pieces were apparently in the process of being made into something else, and have been unpicked. There are a few spots where the color has faded. I thought it would be a shame to throw them away, and I hope someone can make use of them, so I'm offering them at a low price. However, as I have a large quantity, I haven't measured them. If you are interested in purchasing, I will measure them and let you know the size, so please be sure to comment. I am not knowledgeable about fabrics, so I am listing these as scraps. I would appreciate it if only those who understand vintage items would consider purchasing.
