I remember 36" fabrics and the cotton fabric had to be sprinkled for a day so when you ironed it it actually looked like it had been ironed, not the beautiful cottons of today. I remember how nice the poly blends were also, wash and wear, I never bought anything or fabric that was cotton until the new cottons. Being raised in the 50's, I remember lots of things for the most part things now are better.

I remember that too, when there was a sale on fabric I remember my mom buying it for a penny an inch, imagine, 36 cents a yard! Of course the quality may not have been the best, but still!!
