Vintage Sewing Collage Sheets

From the Vintage Sewing #4 Sheet
 

All of our collage sheets are archival, are 8.5 x 11" in size, and coordinate with our rubber stamps.

The cardstock, clear stickers, and acetate transparency sheets are laser-printed.

We have changed our fabric (for the fabric collage sheets) to a heavier weight cotton (still 100% cotton). The thicker cotton really soaks up the ink — see this sample showing the same file printed on the old and new fabrics.

Sweetly Sewing

"Sweet" is the perfect word for these images. Many are from vintage books teaching little girls how to sew or embroider. And I love the "little pin cushion man."

Sewing Ads

It was such an innocent age in the history of advertising, when ads began with simple thoughts like, "Worn by the fashionable girl of the period."
