    Default Where to buy 1930's fabric

    What is a good on-line source for 1930's fabric?

    I have seen some 30's fabric in the Keepsake Quilting catalog. They are a good online shop--some things are a little pricey.
    Also, Fabric Shack has a good selection of many kinds of fabrics.

    Connecting Threads often has fabrics that look like 30's vintage. They're probably not authentic reproductions, but to me that doesn't matter.

    I see pretty big collections of 30's at Hancock's of Paducah or Keepsake Quilting. Prices are steep at both , and I never see a sale of repo's at Keepsake. Hancock's of Paducah does have sales periodically , they just had one for 10 percent of total sale and regular priced fabric.

    Thank all of you. All of the links are good, but I think Grandma's Attic has the best selection of 1930's fabric. Thanks again for your help.
