Today while continuing to sort my mother's stash I ran across a pretty red calico and was surprised to find it was 32" width - definitely a selvage on both ends.

So what is the narrowest width you can remember?
I remember that!! I also remember buying the wrong width and not having enough to finish the garment!!
