Being British has never been better. This year there is so much happening here in the UK. To celebrate this here at Calico Laine we created a section on the site dedicated to Union Jack designs especially if you have something planned for the jubilee! Whatever your taste, whether you are looking for a vintage theme or want a fresh modern look there will be something here for everyone! We have some delightful Ribbons which can be used to decorate cakes, gifts and your interior. Our ribbons are available in a choice of widths, colours and designs! As red white and blue are the prominent colours this year, we have a selection of poplin which can be used in dressmaking, table cloths, bunting, flags or to simply drape in your interior. Poplin is a lovely light weight poly cotton mix made from 65% polyester and 35% cotton and is great value for money too! We also have patterned Union Jack Poplin in a choice of different designs to suit your taste. They are also available in one big flag which can be bought by the meter! There are also the same designs in a satin if you want a different look with a sheen to it. They are all 115 cm wide too! There is also a selection of cords and elastics in the classic red white and blue which can be bought in a mix of these lovely rich colours, or you could use them in the plain colours. The same with the Ribbon. There is so much in the range of colours and widths so come and have a look around and see what the possibilities are!
