When I decided to sell some of my mother's stash online, I hadn't a clue as to how difficult and time-consuming it was going to be. The worst of it? Taking pictures of the fabric. Oh my goodness, it is almost impossible! :)
This is a nice, I believe silk or silk/rayon velvet. I've purchased similar fabric in the past. How do you get it to show up as velvet? The next one is a pretty good picture of the rose taffeta. The Black and White Plaid showed up okay.

| Black and White Plaid or check depending on your viewpoint. |
I took all the pictures and I can't even tell you which one this is supposed to be? I'm not selling anything this color! I think it may be the Pale Green Faille. :)

| Pink and White Stripe - Perfect for an Annabelle dress. But is it silk or cotton? I can't decide. It's beautiful regardless. |

| Light Teal Silk...certainly not this bright! |
Well, I went out and bought a new memory card so I can try again and take more pictures. If you're interested in sewing for antique dolls, or vintage fabrics for crafts, check out my daughter's Etsy shop:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/littlesproutbasics . There is only a limited amount of these, sometimes only one piece, so if you want something get it quick. I'll be adding lots more fabrics over the next couple weeks.

You need to create a little light box. Just a box with white inside....a sheet or painted and then use your Ott light (assuming you have one) or some other direct light to light the box up. Place your item of fabric in there and snaps some pics. It helps me to take a picture from further back and then if you can actually crop it on your camera, bring it close-up after you've taken the pic and crop it. I delete the unwanted pics before I upload onto my computer to save space. Does any of that make sense? :-) Good luck!
