It's a question we get almost daily :) - so we thought it high time we answered it...
Yes, we most certainly do buy vintage fabric - in large quantities or in small quantities. We buy online and at private viewings - whether it's a personal stash or an estate sale. We prefer patterns over single colour as they are much easier to photograph for the online market and we prefer cottons as they are more versatile for our buyers. Having said that, we buy literally anything as long as it's genuine vintage (made before 1980s) and it's of good vintage quality - ie, not many marks etc...
We have been thinking of offering a type of service for people who have vintage fabrics but who don't want to sell it to people like 'us' (meh), but who would prefer to offer it for sale on our website and for a price they are happy with. If you are interested contact us - there would be a percentage we would have to charge and postage to the buyer would be covered by you, but I'd be more than happy to discuss possibilities...
Birdie fabric is divine, isn't it? From Sweden and hopefully going up on the website tomorrow or over the weekend...
