Appreciate any help to find fabric with " vintage baseball" look and
drape. I have googled for hours with variety of fabric descriptions
such as red pin stripe, baseball, vintage, red stripe, etc.

Orig uniforms worn by adults in 1900's were heavy cotton wool, don't
need to match the original fabric, just the "look" of the antique
uniform for little ones.

Prefer white/off white with the tiny RED stripe (trying to make the
baseball uniform generic for children).

I have a photography studio and to purchase similar uniforms for
little ones they are $175. EACH. As I need a variety of sizes for our
little models coming for portraits, it would cost me about $1,100.00
for six uniforms, three girls, three boys..

Thanks for your time and any helpful suggestions.

hi Sandee ,
I live in southern france and i have seen a lot of the type of
material here , and at least here it isn't a fortune.
They use almost exclusively a natural and thick cream cloth with
different motifs in red for embroidery here and kitchen towels etc. I
know it seems weird to mention this but i thought maybe it could help
in your search since everything is so globalized now. perhaps you
could google it and perhaps find a mail order catalog ?
good luck
stephanee


I have been looking for a supplier of Basque or Catalan fabric here in
SW France if you know of anyone near you in southern france I would be
grateful if you could help Stephanee. Thanks
