Appreciate any help to find fabric with " vintage baseball"
look and
drape. I have googled for hours with variety of fabric descriptions
such as red pin stripe, baseball, vintage, red stripe, etc.

Orig uniforms worn by adults in 1900's were heavy cotton wool, don't
need to match the original fabric, just the "look" of the
antique
uniform for little ones.

Prefer white/off white with the tiny RED stripe (trying to make the
baseball uniform generic for children).

I have a photography studio and to purchase similar uniforms for
little ones they are $175. EACH. As I need a variety of sizes for our
little models coming for portraits, it would cost me about $1,100.00
for six uniforms, three girls, three boys..

Thanks for your time and any helpful suggestions.


I have had the same problem, I went ahead and made them of a natural
flannel with red stripping around and i currently sell them on ebay. I
have also googled for hours. I did find the fabric at Yarrington mills
corp. there is a catch tho, you have to buy 55 yards in order to get it.
And you have to have a business. I am sure the shipping charge would be
very high. It also takes 2 weeks. I hope this helps, and if any one has
found it, Please let me know.
