Here at Calico Laine, we pride ourselves in only providing the highest standards of quality Fabrics. To get the most of your Dressmaking garments, we always suggest to source the best quality of fabrics, as Cheap Fabrics simply do not last as well. But....purchasing high quality fabrics does not have to be as expensive as you think! We now have a full range of Economy Fabrics which means you can have these beautiful Fabrics at the price of Cheap Fabrics, without sacrificing quality.
Here are a few examples of the Economy Fabrics that we have avilable and how they can be used instead of Cheap Fabrics:
- Gingham - This is one of the most popular Fabrics that we sell, and at just £2.69 a metre it is the ideal choice for childrens clothing! This polycotton gingham is designed to last well, and is a perfect replacement for Cheap Fabrics that would not wear as well if made into garments such as school uniforms.
- Organza - This is a beautiul layering Fabric that is suitable for Bridal wear and for other formal occasions such as prom dresses. This gorgeous Fabric is only £2.49 a metre, yet is far from being a Cheap Fabric due to its quality and finish when created into clothing items.
- Poplin - This is a lighterweight polycotton Fabric that is only £2.99 a metre and is ideal for shirts and tops. Even though it is fantastic value for money, it is far from being a Cheap Fabric. This is the highest quality Poplin Fabric around, and it really shows when used in Dressmaking.
