Nancy Rhodes said... Interesting garment... thanks for reviewing. I do enjoy all the vintage and the historic reviews here on PR.
I recall when cottons were routinely sewn from 35/36" fabric... the wide stuff was (only) 44 - 45" back in my earliest sewing days. Thinking about that era and before makes me really appreciative of the wide fabrics available today.
If I ever need a bustle I will be prepared.. Thanks! 6/25/09 8:09 AM

You might try looking at an electrical supply place. Zip ties are used for bundling computer network wires when putting in a LAN(local area network). I love how computers and old clothing styles intesect.
I've bought muslin in 36" width. 7/11/09 12:34 PM
