5 yds Red Verdure by Peter Hall - ?\'s

I have a small bolt - 5 yds - of this fabric in pristine condition. It measures 50" across and that includes the 1" white border on either side. I'd like to know if I should also put it under vintage clothing on eBay as well as textiles.

Thanks

Deborah

Will be redoing pics - colors are off

I wouldn't put it in vintage clothing. If I were going to do two categories, I think I would put it in vintage sewing (in collectibles) instead.

Thanks, Laura - good advice.

I'd also like to know if this fabric would be considered "rare"

I would put Heals in the title too if you can fit Deborah, as I would imagine that's a big keyword.
Here's a useful V&A page.

I love 60s textiles very much indeed - I have far too many of them sitting in piles being 'saved' for goodness knows what!

Oh look, here is an even more relevant link :D

Thanks so much for links, Harriet - I actually have had the Heals page bookmarked for a while 'cause I just love looking at the designs. Yup, got to admit I'm a 60s gal.

And by the way my name has changed from seven**** to chezmov, my eBay name.

Might want to start a new thread on that so everyone will know!
