We have some stunning rich colours in the Duchess Satin which can also be used to match up your own and your horses clothing as the Duchess Satin is ideal to be made into waistcoats and ties and to line show jackets which is guaranteed to give a beautiful quality finish. It is also perfect for side saddle riders to make into their gowns as it has lovely body to it! The Duchess Satin has a matte shine to it and is 150cm wide and is the best quality satin available!
Another popular Fabric that has been used is the Klona Cotton which is available in some lovely colours too! It is made from 100% cotton and is a medium weight cotton. Klona Cotton is the perfect fabric to be made into cross country attire and is also very reasonable in price as well! Show rugs can also be made from the Klona Cotton and we sell a choice of different Webbing which can be made into the straps!Another heavier weight fabric to consider is Gabardine, which is a heavier weight fabric, which is very substantial and will work well with much use.
