Its now may which means its nearly officially summer so what better time to start creating your summer wardrobe with some of our beautiful printed Dressmaking Fabrics. When thinking about your ideal summer garment you should think about the colour, the design and the quality of fabric you are choosing. At summer time I love going for bright colours with pretty feminine designs such as floral prints as they never go out of trend. Here at calico laine we stock a large range of printed materials from cotton prints to viscose prints and some beautiful printed chiffons that are perfect for more lightweight garments on your summer holidays. All our printed fabrics come in a wide range of designs so you can be sure to find something you like when shopping with us.

We have recently had some beautiful new printed Dressmaking Fabrics arrive in stunning designs and colours perfect for creating your summer clothes for the next few warmer months. Our new printed materials are 100% cotton rose and hubble fabrics which are an extremely popular range with our customers due to their thickness, design and long lasting qualities when they are made up into stunning garments. Some of the new prints include floral patterns, beach style prints and quirky animal designs like giraffes and scottish dogs that will catch everyones eye. Rose and hubble materials are extremely easy to work with and sew with making these fabrics a great choice for your dressmaking projects. As well as our cotton prints, a lot of our customers tend to choose a material from our cotton spandex printed range as those prints are stunning and unique. Cotton spandex fabrics make up into amazing occasional wear clothing such as a-line skirts and fitted dresses that are great for summer weddings or christenings. If you are wanting a more lighter summer Dressmaking Fabric especially for going on holiday I would definitely recommend a chiffon or printed satin as they are light on the skin and can be made into pretty styles of garments such as skirts, kimonos and little blouses that are perfect for throwing over your bikini on the beach.
