Some collections are purchased.
Others are inherited.
This collection comes from my grandmother’s personal sewing stash. Born in 1910, she was a lifelong seamstress and quilter who carefully saved beautiful fabrics throughout her life. After she passed, her treasured sewing collection was inherited by my mother, and years later entrusted to me.
As I sort through these boxes, I can’t help but imagine the quilts she planned, the dresses she stitched, and the projects she tucked away for another day. Rather than letting these remarkable textiles remain hidden, I’ve chosen to share them with others who appreciate the beauty and history of authentic vintage fabrics.
This listing includes a carefully curated assortment of original cotton fabrics dating from approximately the 1920s through the 1940s. These are not reproduction prints. They are genuine period textiles from a family collection that has been lovingly preserved for generations.

These fabrics have been carefully stored within our family for decades. Because they are authentic vintage textiles, you may find gentle signs of age, previous storage, or the passage of time. I consider these part of their story and character rather than imperfections.
At Hearth & Hare Studio, it is my hope that these fabrics continue the journey they began nearly a century ago—finding new homes with those who appreciate their craftsmanship, history, and enduring beauty.
Thank you for helping preserve a small piece of my family’s story.
