We have many high quality fabrics available here at Calico Laine to help you create some stunning designs! Whatever impression you are trying to create with your dressmaking ideas, we will surely have a Dressmaking Fabric to inspire you! Whether you are wanting to make an elegant evening dress, or are looking to make a garment more on the casual side, we have so many options available, so come and have a look around our website and see if anything takes your fancy! One of my personal favorites is the Doubler Knit Jersey. It is a heavy weight jersey and is ideal to make into a classic looking jacket or clothing for the colder temperatures. It comes in some lovely subtle colours too! The composition of the fabric is 74% polyester 23% and 3% spandex so it has a lovely stretch to it which will not only add to your comfort, but will also enhance the fit of your garment. The Double Knit Jersey is 150cm wide too! If you are looking for a fabric to create a formal dress or bridal wear, have a look at our Satin Back Crepe is a lovely fabric which is also reversible as it has a beautiful crepe on one side and the other is a luxurious satin so you have the option of your favourite side! It isn't to heavy either, so will have a lovely drape and create a lasting impression! If you are looking for a light weight sheer fabric, Chiffon is a perfect choice. It is one of our very best sellers and it flows stunningly. The Chiffon also matches up perfectly with most of our Satin Back Crepes so you could really create a lovely finished garment with a nice texture! Come and have a look around at our website as we have so many different Dressmaking Fabrics to choose from to create some lovely designs! We can always match up your threads/linings and zips as best as we possibly can too!
