1960's Fairy Tale Barkcloth - 52cm or 25cm Wide

Vintage nursery fabric dating from the 1960's.

This charming, screen printed barkcloth cotton dates from the 1960's and has colour pictures taken from nursery stories on a pale blue background. Some of the older stories are represented so we have Puss-in-Boots, The Fox and the Raven, The Little Pigs and The Wolf and the Lamb. They are all shown in bright colours with a folk art style and the story title beneath.

These are the last pieces remaining of this print and are being sold as seconds for adding to small projects, quilts and patchwork. The 52cm width has a stitch line running between the two rows of images and an old fold line through the left hand side. The 25cm width has a fold line running through to the left of the images. Other than these, the colours are bright and the fabric is strong.

This is a reclaimed fabric with selvedges to both sides and in lovely condition with bright colours and no damage. It's a perfect weight for quilts, upholstery, cushions or bags - or it would make a beautiful dress.

Each width is sold by the half metre, which will give 3 images on the narrow width and 4 on the wider one. If you order more than one piece it will come as a continuous length. Please choose which you would like from the drop-down menu.
