    Default Fabrics that have been Printed on both sides

    picked up a few of these cotton fabrics at an estate sale.
    regular quilting fabric weight ; not quilted.
    however one side of fabric has music stuff on it
    and it's reverse side has floral garlands.
    does anyone remember ever seeing such fabrics
    and about when they would have been started ?

    I've never seen those.
    Only ones I've seen kind of like that are ones that were double knits.

    I Googled 2 sided fabric and wound up on fabric.com, http://www.fabric.com/SitePages/Glossary.aspx in their definitions. Double cloth is two-sided fabric. From there Google took me to some place in Japan that opened in 1999 and sells it. I know from this it is made but would have to do more digging to find more out. I remember seeing double sided fabric in the 70's but it seems like it had/or was polyester.
