Since we sell our cuts of ribbon and tapes by the yard, we often have lengths left over that are a bit too short to sell as part of our regular inventory. This is an excellent opportunity for you to grab a great deal on these odd-length remnants!
Wool tape, such as this Wool Twill Tape was used extensively in the 18th century on into modern times. In the 18th & 19th century it could be found on petticoat & gown hems, wallets, jackets, Regimental coats, Indigenous American and First Nation garments, bed hangings and slipcovers. Hats were bound in it and garments closed with it.
