How much yardage is in a thrifted sheet?

October 14, 2009 by Anne Weaver

thifted-sheets-1

Thrifted vintage sheets are one of my favorite sources of vintage yardage.  Of course, sheets don’t come in the standard 44? or 60? widths we’re used to seeing in the fabric store.  Luck for us, Crafting a Green World gives the measurements of standard sheet sizes so we’ll know just how much fabric we’re getting when we bring home some vintage bed linens.  Get the measurements from Crafting a Green World.

Vintage sheets are very popular for re-styling or recycling of fabric and a great way to use these fun and bold prints rather than just storing grannies old bedsheets in the cupboard.  You can see more articles using vintage sheets here.   Don’t have any vintage bed sheets of your own? Check these out on Etsy.
