Antique Collars & Yokes These Collars and Yokes are fine examples of needlework. They can be framed, or used in Reproduction Costumes. Or use tem to embellish a contemporary jacket or shirt. One fine reference for these works of art is in "Old Lace & Linens" by Maryanne Dolan.

Antique Sleeves and Cuffs Our fore-mothers and fore-grandmothers saved everything! These dress parts either are from salvaged vintage dresses and other clothes, or were part of an unfinished article. They are wonderful examples of handwork and early fabrics. They are collectible as they are, or use them to finish period reenactment costumes.

Vintage Aprons One of my earliest sewing memories is of being put in a corner to hem my great-aunt's aprons...not that they needed it, so that I would stay out from under foot! Vintage Aprons are highly collectible for their nostalgic value and for their fabrics, many made of feedsacks. But don't be afraid to use them!
