Vintage Decorative Pillows

What are vintage Fabrics?
 
Typically they are fabrics created during the 1930's through the 1960's, and are generally 100% cotton.  Another school of thought includes fabrics during the 1970's through the 1980's and are a blend of cotton and synthetics.
 
Vintage fabrics are not easy to obtain but if they are stored properly, can be just as beautiful and durable as the day they were created.
 
However, one should handle and care for them as you would any "fine" fabric.  The allure of having an item created with these fabrics is that of owning a piece of the past and the pleasant memories it evokes.

These pillows are handmade from vintage fabrics....
