    This is a very bold print! It is 100% polyester and has a union label. The size is not marked but I am guessing about a size 14. It fits like a tent dress but could be cinched at the waist with a belt. It is in very good condition with no wears, tears, or stains. 22 inches from armpit to armpit 56 inches long 15 inch slit on each side at bottom Shipping is for 1 pound. Great for a 70s party or Halloween dress up or anytime if you are brave! I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Storefor more great bargains, including more vintage clothing.

    This is an awesome piece of clothing! I don't really like the feel of the 70s polyester but this print design will sure get you some attention. It would fit many sizes because you can alwys wear a belt with it and make it smaller. I think it could even go up to a size 16 or more. I'm tempted to wear it to a halloween party or something but I have nowhere to go! View My Other Items For Sale

    You are getting 2 vintage full slips in this auction. I am selling them together because they are not quite perfect. The one on the left has a tiny tear at the bodice and a small stain that I have pointed to on the bottom section. The one on the right has a slight discoloration and the shoulder straps are somewhat worn. They measure about 32 inches at the bust and are about 38 inches long. The lace is very pretty and they are silky soft and nicely fitted. Shipping is for 1 pound.

    These slips are not in that fantastic of a condition but they are certainly wearable and they are just so nice and soft to the touch, due to the age of the fabric. I wonder what kind of project you could use them for if you didn't want to wear them--maybe use the tops in a pillow project? That would be interesting! View My Other Items For Sale

    This charming bedspread is shown on a twin size bed. It measures about 86 x 104 inches, including the 2-inch fringe that covers 3 sides of the piece. It is made of a lightweight cotton fabric, very summery. It is in very good condition but has a few issues. The top of the spread (without the fringe) has some wear along the edge but has been re-sewn. There is one line I have pointed to that might be a pull in the fabric. There are no holes or tears or stains that I have spotted. The fabric is full of bright flowers such as was popular in the 60s and 70s. The tag reads Sears Perma Prest bedspread. Shipping is for 2 pounds. I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more bedspreads and vintage linen items.

    I just love the colors on this bedspread! You could just use the fabric in other projects if you didn't need the bedspread. It is quite thin--it could work for a dress or top. pillows would need another layer of fabric, probably to reinforce it. It is just so MOD! View My Other Items For Sale

    These books are so awesome because they are really old and you can see all the neat patterns that ladies used to use to make the old doilies and bedspreads and accessories and stuff. I sell a lot of this "stuff" on the ebay site so it is interesting to see how complicated a process it is and how long it would take to crochet this stuff. You can really appreciate it then.
