RAG RESCUE WEBSITE HAS NOW CLOSED IT'S DOORS.

I would like to thank everyone for watching this blog and for visiting the Rag Rescue website for the past eight years. I hope you have enjoyed looking at the wonderful antique and vintage fabrics from England and France. I know that the fabrics and embellishments have taken up residence all over the world and are being treasured. I was only too pleased to be part of their discovery.

A big thank you to you all for your kind wishes for my retirement although I can see myself being very busy, only in a more relaxed manner.

I love creating felt and have a blogger account called Feltissimo which you can occasionally have a look at if you so wish. You can also find me on Facebook at facebook.com/feltissimoart

I will leave this blog open for a short while in case you would like to look through the photographs of the wonderful fabrics and embellishments I have sold over the past years. 

Thank you all again.

More sale priced antique and vintage textiles added this week..

I hope you have had an enjoyable week. Mine has been pretty painful what with a tooth extraction and visits to the physio twice a week or rather the torture chamber. Still I've still managed to list 36 new items onto the website this week. I daren't tell my physio as I had strict instructions not to use the computer, as if..... I'm just doing more exercises and popping more painkillers. Anyway enough of me.
I've listed some lovely items below all with a 50% off the normal price. You can see a list below but I would like to tell you that some of the French vintage fabrics are much larger sizes than normal but well below the 50% off price tag.
You will find the following -
A Regency reticule silk bag,
2 embroidered shawls/stoles/scarves,
An antique chinese embroidery,
A stash bag of flower corsages,
More broderie anglais lace,
Vintage scrappy packs,
Vintage fabric strip rolls,
10 x packs of 6" squares
and
some wonderful vintage fabrics.
You can find them all HERE by clicking on the link.

More items to clear at 50% the normal price.

I have been very busy with family matters these past two weeks, so I apologise for not listing anything new lately. I'm beginning to catch up now and the items below have been listed on to the website this morning. You can see them all in the
'NEW LISTINGS' CATEGORY'
by clicking the link above or by going to the individual categories.

 What is your favourite?

My favourite is the ribbon work piece.

I'm afraid I've had to close the Rag Rescue website for a while due to family illness.

Saturday, 4 October 2014

Lots more vintage items added to the Rag Rescue website today.

I would just like to let everyone know that I have decided that it will be a good idea to close Rag Rescue website at the end of this tax year, that is at the end of March 2015. It appears that some customers, especially new customers, seem to think that I am retiring almost immediately which of course, isn't the case. It has to be slowly as I have a stock room still bulging with lovely vintage fabrics and trims. However, although initially I thought it would take a couple of years to clear the majority of stock, business has been so very brisk that I feel that next March seems more reasonable. I will try my best to keep adding lots more items on to the website each week .
Today, I have listed the following items on to the website, which you will be able to see quickly  by clicking on the links.
VINTAGE FABRICS INCLUDING UPHOSTERY FABRIC.
SOME MORE OF THOSE POPULAR LITTLE VINTAGE FABRIC SCRAPPY PACKS AT ONLY

 £2.50 EACH.
VINTAGE FABRIC SQUARES.
ROLLS OF VINTAGE RIBBONS.
BUCKLE PACKS
AND
VINTAGE GOODS
including an evening bag, French bridesmaids headbands and an original covered coathanger.

Vintage goods and more vintage fabrics on sale.
In continuation of my Bargains Bonanza I have reduced the prices in the
