So how long have you kept fabric?
Almost Antique? I'm older than that fabric! It can"t be Antique! LOL At what age is fabric considered Antique? Last weekend I baught some fabric listed as Vintage. What is the difference?
Back to subject does a finished project count? My oldest is a quilt that my great grand mother made is the late 20's, yardage would be 1969, still have scraps from my wedding gown.
