Sewing old fabric to make something new can be a very inexpensive and profitable venture. By sewing old fabrics, you are dramatically cutting the cost of materials needed, and maximizing your profits. Plus, vintage pants, quilts, shirts, hats, shoes, etc are back in style. You don't have to worry about your projects not being able to sell.
Because you are sewing old, you can pick up your fabrics from yard sales, second-hand thift stores, and swap meets.
