    The minute I saw them my mind said 70's. Boy do I remember those BIG flowers. But, I think the ones on the far right might be from another decade. Maybe a little more recent.
    The seventies are back "in" now so you can use them for any number of projects. I'd hurry up though. The fad won't last forever.

    This all looks like vintage stuff. I have some of these myself, and I bought mine in the mid 70's. Hey will you share your friend, I love free stash? Oh boy, play time. You got a nice friend. The fabric in front w/navy back ground and big white flower w/red in the middle of the flowers is back from 74 or 75. I have a few yards myself. The fabric behind that one was manufactured in 78. the one behind that is mid 80's to early 90's. the fabric beside the first I mentioned w/ orange flowers is from the 70's, the two behind that one is 90's. To the right row, the blue and white is 70's fabric and the brown and white fabric also. The plaid is either 70's or 80's and the white plaid too. the rest I can't tell you. But I have the others, and according the my inventory book, these are the years my record show when I bought my fabric like yours. Hope it helps you. You have a great evening tonight. :wink:
