A sophisticated take on combining red and green, these vintage gimp trims will lend the perfect touch to your vintage-inspried sewing and craft projects. The vintage sewing trim is suitable for draperies, pillows, lampshades, and more.

The vintage trims are on their original wooden spools and would look great on display in a sewing or crafts room.

The green trim is marked "Rayon Cotton." The color is marked "Gooseberry." According to the label there are 36 yards on the spool. The spool is almost full. I measured a generous 32 yards of trim. Trim is approximately 3/4" wide, and it is in very good condition.

The burgundy red trim feels like cotton but is not marked. It was made by Consolidated Trimmings. The trim is approximately 3/4" wide by 7 yards long, and is in very good condition.
