Vintage Barkcloth Style Names

There are just so many beautiful patterns of vintage barkcloth...roses, feather plumes, scrolls, tropicals and Eame's atomic...that I decided to start cataloging the many beautiful patterns I find along with their Design names. This is a work in progress, so I'll be adding new pics as I discover them. I also sell vintage barkcloth on Ebay..so check it out...my user name is: vintagetresors.

Thanks for your listing. It certainly was a visual feast and took me back to many childhood memories. Keep up the good work.

What an amazing collection!!! You certainly have an eye for beauty. I have had a few yards of fabric that I have been saving for my dream cabin/cottage in the woods here in Canada. I never knew what it was until I was able to identify it as Barkwood and the design is Grandma Moses' Early Springtime on the Farm. Thanks for helping me figure that out. Keep up the great work.

Very nice to have a refrence point to look at when trying to identify various patterns of barkcloth. I have recently been given cases of barkcloth and other vintage fabrics from my mother. I do not sew or quilt and am not sure what to do with it all. If you or any of your guests are interested, I may be contacted at allig1227@yahoo.com Thanks again, allison

Delightful collection! Much appreciated here on Maui.

Love looking at the styles you have categorized! Barkcloth is wonderful. My pattern is slide #109. I always look for it but rarely find it. Please advise if you have any. An old pair of that style barkcloth draperies hung in a vintage home we purchased. I upholstered a wing chair with them and then painted a mural 360 degrees around the living room picking up certain images from the barkcloth in my paintings. I need more for pillows, etc.
If you or any of your readers find this pattern, please contact me!
Thanks,
Melanie

wonderful!

Thank you for having this. Not only is it eye candy, I plan to reupholster my faded furniture with the vintage look you have. It's so good to see fabrics like this. You're in my favorites list for future reference.

Wow, you have just KNOCKED MY SOCKS OFF !!!!!!!!! Thanks for the amazing visual feast !
- Martha Somerville, Tue, 27 Jan 2009 4:40PM

I love anything mid-century! These fabrics are so much fun to look at as well as to look for--must have some of them! I have my mother's 1949 furniture, Woodrose pattern china bought 1949 in Japan, and 1950's California pottery pieces. I'm using barkcloths to re-do her house---oh, I also have a 1958 Pfaff sewing machine that will probably last another 50 years! (I was born 1957).
