✿✿ANGEL A 140cm white viscose sateen shirting, with quite the softest hand that I think I’ve ever felt. A quite dazzling cloth.

✿✿AUTUMN SPLODGE 145cm wide. Fine, very lightly satin-ised cotton dress fabric in an off white/cream background with a pretty much all over brown, green, pink and cerise with a peach all over abstract, splodgy, floral design in to which or on top of which has been embroidered outline flowers and leaves in black thread. Lovely cloth and will be absolutely beautiful made into skirts of a flowing variety.

This 150cm wide polyester viscose dress cloth is of a colour that can possibly only been seen when approaching your own desert island and there is no grudge or impediment in the sea, only clear blues, greens and hints of purple and other tones of blue. Then as the sand becomes whiter, the colours change and this colour is a green but of a hue that only water can bring. Come with me and share this little bit of paradise.

✿✿A RIGHT ROYAL CARRY ON A 150cm wide very fine twill cotton trousering in a vivid royal blue.

A 112cm wide exceptionally 100% mercerised combed cotton fine cotton poplin with a very lightly polished finish.

✿✿A FUR FUR BETTER THING A 140cm wide Fur fabric with a tightly woven cotton canvas backing.

The fur is a polyester pile in a silvery grey with hints and tones of similar colours; mainly brought about by the way the pile is introduced into the cloth. Looks for all like a vast collection of sea shells, or the coat of a wonderful little terrier.

Even for those of us who can remember the era, for which that song came, you may not remember having a garment made out of this rather fabulous type of fabric. It is somewhat shiny but not cheaply so. It is definitely made for the posh side of things and is a rather beautiful cloth.

On the label it says 'Canadian peachskin' it is not a peachskin in my mind but it is nice and soft and was definately made in Canada. Top clobber. a) Orangey/red

a) EAP - Does this cloth have a touch of Byronic glamour? A pewter based brocade with a black floral design, imitating lace in some parts.

Make yourself a skirt out of this, then head to the nearest castle. b) Christabel - This is an extremely feminine, fairly lightweight pink brocade. The pattern is reminiscent of the Victorian period, without looking too old. An undeniably classy cloth. c) On the Prowl - A black, green, yellow and blue floral paisley brocade fabric. Absolutely wonderful.

Perfectly plain from a distance, but some weave interest up close.

Nice finish and a good trouser weight.

REF: 2063 WIDTH: 142cm/55”

Not a soft and flowing silk fabric but more in the way of a taffeta and of course it has lots of natural slubbiness in the weave. Because of the natural state of the cloth there are slight imperfections and irregularities, which are typical of a silk fabric.

£5.95 per metre

✿✿BLUE SKY A 140cm wide very lightly wrinkled plain pale blue cotton with a large ribbon embroidered floral in the same colour, by now I’m sure you know what I mean by ribbon embroidered. It is strips of the original cloth, cut into strips, made into a design and sewn into the base cloth.

✿✿DELTA LADY

✿✿DOUBLE CHECK

A 155cm wide cotton suiting weight, or maybe even light furnishing cloth in cream and beige. Which when I first looked at it, I thought it was in the shape of tiny little saw teeth in rows, but closer examination it is more like little delta winged aeroplanes. Very tiny, delta winged aeroplanes in a darker colour on a cream background. Other side up, shows there to be lots of tiny little houses in the darker brown colour with less of the beige showing. But you can use it either way, that’s for sure.

REF: 2066 WIDTH: 155cm/61”

A 150cm fine cotton very lightly seersuckered check shirting in a dark purpley-blue and navy blue check. That’s half the story. The other part of it is that it is in fact two checks. A sort of gingham check on one side, and a tiny jam jar sized check on the other, which strongly suggests that it is printed. But it certainly seems woven to me, I will leave that to you to make your mind up. I think this is a bit of a head turner.

150cm wide polyester/cloth/linen look dress fabric in a sort of washed out pinky-orange. It isn’t washed out of course; it’s just the use of different shades of yarn in the weaving of the cloth. And there is a lot of weave interest as well; it is not a flat cloth by any stretch of the imagination. And being made of polyester it is obviously very easy care, virtually non-iron.

British Made 100% wool Duffle coating fabric made for A brand with a famous check. A 150cm wide pure new wool coating in a lovely rich shade of mushroom. There is an element of a herringbone in the weave pattern, but it is none too obvious and is in fact softened by a final brushing of the cloth. I suppose it’s not fashionable or even sensible to talk about wools at this time of year but these things do come and go whatever the weather. Capes, long coats, maybe even short coats, are more than possible with this splendid cloth.

How to describe this fabric?...Is it a satin - no. Is it a crepe - no. Is it a bit of both with a sanded finish? Yes. It has the qualities of a satin; the soft touch, wonderful draping qualities. It has a similar texture to a crepe, therefore taking away the light shine a satin has. If you are looking for a wonderful dress fabric that will look a million dollars, then my money is on this. Superb for blouses and dresses. Great for special occasion wear. a) Cerise d) Jet black

✿✿IPCRESS There will be those of you who can cast your mind back to the days of Harry Palmer and skulduggery in White Hall and Scotland Yard, and our hero getting captured by some foreign ne’er-do-wells, and tortured and all manner of nasties. But this cloth put me in mind of the images that they used to try and blow his mind. This was in addition to the dripping tap, the thumb screws and having to go without an afternoon cup of tea. This 150cm very fine chiffon weight cloth puts me in mind of the laser like flashing images that they tried to bring him down with.

I suppose basically it’s an artist/designer gone made with his computer of his paint brush. There are splashes and slashes in mostly geometric shapes it has to be said, and in fairly subdued colours, black, navy blue, dark turquoise, pale turquoise, bit of mustard, bit of French mustard, and white. An extremely attention gathering cloth.

✿✿LIBERTY Here we have a small selection of some of the Liberty fabrics we have online. They are not particularly cheap but they a lot cheaper than you would find at Liberty. The fabrics are obviously of the finest quality you will find.

I will start with some silks... a) Kipling - 137 cm wide fine silk twill dress fabric in a very pale green/ off-white with a fairly large floral/leafy design in as many shades of blue as you can think of with some black detailing.

REF: 1753 WIDTH: 137cm/53”

£23.50 per metre

b) Fine, Finer, Finest - A 140cm wide fine Italian silk satin from Liberty.

Its name is Balcombe and it is incredibly fine and floaty, you probably can’t feel this when you wear it, so make sure you are fully clothed before you go out.

J ✿✿JOSEPH Italian - A 145cm wide wool/poly felt in a fairly outrageous, completely all over floral design in tones and shades of pink, cerise, turquoise, browns, orange, bit of black. Fabulous article to look at, it can only have been made for jackets as it is fairly rigid, but still supple enough to wear. I called it a felt, because I didn’t know what else to call it but it’s not the sort of felt you would associate with craft work or men’s caps of yesteryear. As John Denver used to say: far out.

c) Mirako - 137cm wide silk crepe de chine with an all over sort of skyscraper design in all shades of blue and black.

REF: 1701 WIDTH: 137cm/53”

£23.50 per metre

Then some cottons... d) Capel - 137cm wide tana lawn in a lovely delicate pale turquoise with an all over but reasonably sparse white floral print with navy blue foliage.

This fabric exudes class and timelessness.

Cotton with a dash of elastane shirting dress fabric, not quite a lawn quality but not a long way off and it’s in a very fresh white and turquoise green abstract design, probably has an Arab influence covered in all and expensive, no that is just something I wanted to say.

Overall it’s a very see-through fabric, so you might want to wear something underneath. Or you could just use this as a loose over garment anyway.

Cost a lot of money to do this and I think the effect has been well worth it.

All about fabric

✿✿THE PERFECT TEA DRESS

✿✿VISCOSE JERSEY

Three lovely prints on viscose

b) Ellen - Super quality high twist viscose dress fabric in black with a small ditsy floral. £7.95

A selection of Viscose /with approximately 3% Lycra jerseys in varying qualities and weights. Price does not necessarily reflect the quality just the price at which they were bought at. I have listed the lightweight ones, which are better for tops and cowl necks where you want something very drapey. The others will do the same but will not fall as flat and will be better for covering lumps and bumps.

c) Jazz - As above but with a stunning floral print. £7.95

They are all at least 150cm/59” wide

a) Lulu - Gorgeous coral red with an ivory flower on a standard quality viscose. £5.50

✿✿TT A 150cm wide fresh as a daisy striped 100% linen shirting in white, with variegated and different and differing green stripes. It is fairly coarsely woven but it is a fairly soft cloth and is the epitome of summer. But don’t do what I did, at the first barbeque of the season, and put on all the fancy gear, got out there and splashed a load of dirty hot oil over myself.

I didn’t spill my wine though.

✿✿WOOL

h) Forest Green - 152cm wide. Lightly brushed 100%wool, Melton coating in bottle green. Dark enough to wear to both wedding and funerals. £22.00

Our sermon today will see to address all the rights and wrongs of anything you care to name, at the end of it you will be able to make a decision about where you want to be in this world. On the other hand we can just talk about this rather fabulous collection of woollens that Caroline’s managed to get hold of which is probably a safer bet as well.

i) Truly scrumptious - 150cm wide. Truly sumptuous wool with 3% nylon. If you do have a problem with olive green overcome it, you need this cloth it’s gorgeous. £22.00

a) Weavers Art - 152cm wide. Quite substantial wool coating in a very traditional, fairly large check incorporating lots of colours in the yarns, yarns of mixed colours all very intricately woven. A supreme example of a wool weaver’s art. £25.00 b) England - 140cm wide. What in some people’s eyes would be described as a west of England cloth, I’m not sure what that means but I have had a jacket at some point made of a west of England cloth and this is very similar, a fairly fine but not thin, soft, smooth woollen cloth in a pale Lovett green with an over check in shades of brown and a paler green. Sensationally soft and an utter delight to wear. £22.00

j) Bottle it - 150cm wide. Another gorgeous wool flannel 97% wool 3% Nylon. Lightly brushed flannel, in a bottle green. £22.00 k) I’d Like Mustard With That Please – French - 150cm wide. Lightly brushed Melton 95% wool 5% nylon coating which gives the cloth a little bounciness and lightness, it comes in another shade of mustard, rather more English than French but also just has a hint of sweetness about it. £25.00 REF: 2040

WIDTH: AT LEAST 150cm/59”

as stated per metre

✿✿WHEN THE WEATHER IS FINE

c) Prince Of Wales - 150cm wide. Quite delicately patterned prince of wales check wool suiting in beige and a darker brown. It’s described as tweed and probably is in that it has quite a bit of weave interest. Quite at home in jackets, skirts or indeed coats. £22.00 d) Blue Herringbone (Picture on back cover) - I could mention an island off the north west coast of Scotland but that wouldn’t be best practice but this cloth is very much like tweed from that part of the world, its different shades of blue herringbone tweed with a fairly typical highland wool feel. It’s very much at home in all kinds of apparel. £24.00 e) Handsome - All of the above applies to this cloth as well. This is sort of a medium sized hanston check in a pale grey green, brown and mushroom and this too is 150cm wide. £25.00

Fairly standard but decent cotton poplin dress fabrics, they are supposed to be the same as the last wider width cottons we had which flew out, these feel a little stiffer but they have cost more but are the same price as last time to you, such is the world of cotton these days. We have had some lovely feedback off our customers about them. a) On the Sand d) Bonny – Coral g) Kate Black j) Dance m) Mirage

b) On the Sand – Pink e) Kate Green h) Kate Pink k) Laze n) Reign

REF: 1988 WIDTH: 145cm/57”

c) Bonny – Navy f) Kate Red i) Kate Grey l) Mary £7.95 per metre

✿✿WASHED OFF WHITE

f) Country Tweed - Wonderful county tweed check skirt jacket weight woollen tweed in grey taupe, pale blue and what appears to be a navy blue or black and there are different tones in the colours as the yarns cross each other to form this rather splendid good size check. £22.00 g) I’d Like Mustard With it Please – English - 150cm wide. 95% wool 5% cashmere. Brushed Melton coating in a sort of dark peachy colour and if you don’t like peach pretend it isn’t because I’m not so sure if that’s a good description, it’s a great colour, lovely and warm as indeed it will be to wear an quite light weigh despite being fairly substantial. £25.00

A 150cm off white ‘washed’ cotton blouse cloth, with a nice soft ‘used’ finished. The washed element means that there is a permanent creasing effect. Great holiday gear!

DAPHNE

✿✿WHISPERING GRASS A 150cm wide floaty, flimsy, delicate polyester georgette in a sort of wavy tempas grass like pattern in blues, turquoises, bit of lime green, deep purple, bit of yellow. I suppose it is just a geometric thing really, but it does wave about like tampas grass does in a gale. Exquisite really.

✿✿WIDE MOUTH FROG I’m not so sure, why this cloth should remind me of the wide mouth frog.

Which as I know some of you will know, is a restaurant, though I can’t honestly remember where it is; I’ll try Spain, Southern Spain. And it was one of those places you had to go to because of the name and where they cooked everything in a rather rich fashion. Which was somewhat wasted on a group of golfing men who had had more than the odd libation before we ate. So I remember at the time, I decided that it was the food that was the problem for my demise and not the drink. I did subsequently return and found it absolutely delightful. This 160cm wide at least, 97% /3% viscose/lycra jersey comes in a sort of dull kingfisher blue. Made for Coast the high Street chain. Make of that what you will.

✿✿TALL, DARK AND HANDSOME A 162cm wide at least, ridiculously soft black viscose jersey, its just gorgeous. It has a benefit, if it is a benefit at all, of a little bit of stretch and it sort of just hangs there, inviting the touch. And being as black as it can get it doesn’t show finger marks. Now isn’t that a blessing?

It stretches all over the shop, it is fairly substantial, by the time you get round to making it; it will be the time of year to start wearing it.

REF: 1979 WIDTH: 150cm/59”

I wish I had this many bird houses in my garden, that said, I wish my garden was big enough to have so many trees. Instead, I will have to make do with this white cotton poplin. The bird houses, are repeated in three colours, while the birds come in pink, blue and a rusty orange.

✿✿WOODSTOCK ✿✿YOU ARE AWFUL BUT I LIKE YOU A 150cm wide softest baby pink cotton lawn imaginable. There is every chance this was made for nightwear, but that could be a waste, because not many people see you in your night attire and it all gets scrunched up any way. So think of something else.

REF: 2094 WIDTH: 150cm/59”

A 155cm wide viscose lycra fine jersey in a very pale turquoise with an Hawaiian inspired floral and spray print in more purple, tiny bits of orange and other shades of turquoise, a big-ish sort of pattern but still very delicate. Very much from the flowers in your hair era.
