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..
Are you planning on making these yourself? Your time is worth
*something*, and a professional sewist will charge $20-$40(or
more)/per hour, PLUS the cost of fabric and notions!
Thanks for your time and any helpful suggestions.
