This is where I try to sell you stuff
I share a lot of stuff from work with you guys, and mostly it's just for the fun of it and because it's interesting. Today I am going to be really upfront about the fact that I am trying to sell you stuff. So feel free to skip.
We are having a big sale at Treadle, and every fabric in the store is discounted! Here is what's new and noteworthy for us costumer types:
Silk taffetas, including lots of shot ones. I won't pretend we can compete with the bargain warehouses price-wise, but this really is the good stuff, not thin and cheap like you get on ebay. You will definitely get what you pay for.
We have a new cotton organdy. This is the stiffest, most paper-like organdy I've seen, and I cannot wait to make some petticoat ruffles or a crisp 18th c cap out of it. It's also cheaper than you usually see for this quality, at only $9/yd.
Lace and beaded lace. We have tons of these.
Swiss dot, voile, and heirloom sewing cottons and linens.
Historic cotton repro prints. We have a lot of Moda and Kaufman lines.
There's so much more; lace, wool, linen, silk, and trims, and it's all discounted!
We are low-tech, but if you see something you like here or anywhere on our blog, you can call us at (651)698-9690 to place a mail order. Support a small, independent business!
