Delicious vintage ticking with light pink and white stripes. It is a European twill fabric called cutí (from the French “coutil”) from around 1950. This textile, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. It is a medium weight cotton fabric. It is a soft fabric after many washes. It has a simple combination of widths and only two colors. We have this combination of stripes in many colors
