Hi and welcome…a quick word about this blog…
I'm a mad fabric collector but I've gone a bit overboard, so I've started this blog to re-home some gorgeous, top-quality fabrics at really great prices. Mostly ex-designer fabrics from places like New York's garment district and Milan's fabric mills, and mostly single pieces. Please see the 'About' and 'FAQ' at the top of this page for more info.

Flowerburst Silk Charmeuse Lycra
This piece really is a veritable bursting profusion of stylised flowers in outline and in eggplant, caramel and kiwi over black. This is a beautiful silk charmeuse with lycra, giving the fabric wonderful stretch and give.
Rubik’s cube silk/lycra charmeuse SOLD
FABRIC IS GONE, THANKS
I have many, many pieces of lovely silk in just the right length for floaty tops or perky blouses. This silk fits both the fun and classic mould at the same time.
And, it will match everything… (more…)
Grey with black etched ellipses silk SOLD
GONE NOW, MANY THANKS
Just because I am offering up a lot of fabrics it doesn’t mean that I don’t love them. This is one of the very loved one – it is a superb quality silk, the print design is perfect, classic but modern, the colours are versatile. It is a great piece.
Milly spider mums silk charmeuse SOLD
NOW GONE, THANK YOU
This was a Milly favourite from a few years back, a fabulous silk that sort of suggests an oriental influence with the print pattern, hence the spider mums reference, but that could be just a rorchach test thing going on.
Tokyo gardens silk charmeuse SOLD
GONE, THANKS
Now that I’m looking at this silk it really presents as a sampler of symbols and motifs from traditional Japanese textiles, especially kimonos and haori, but presented in a completely modern way.
The Mums are one of the most dominant features in Japanese designs and they are exploding all over this fabric, but you also see the bamboo leaves, the background hexagons and may other traditional symbols. (more…)
It’s Milly Feathersssssss…. SOLD
SORRY – IT’S GONE
Alrighty, this is possibly one of the most popular of all the Milly fabrics, with simply unbelievable jewel colours in a stunning digital feathers design.
This is a silk charmeuse, and it’s a dress length, and I suspect trigger fingers will be needed.
Pale shell pink dandelion silk/lycra charmeuse SOLD
GONE, THANKS
Sticking with the more understated colours/prints for the moment, this truly beautiful silk/lycra now has an outing.
This is an interesting print. I think it basically takes the form of a repeating panel although there is no discernible start/finish line for the panel. (more…)
Delicate dreamy tie-dye silk charmeuse SOLD
THIS FABRIC IS SOLD NOW, THANK YOU
Oh this is lovely! I really think that they…whoever is responsible for this print design…have done such a good job.
The print of this lighter weight silk charmeuse simulates a tie-dye effect, repeating the dreamy colours of soft gold, silver, ecru and platinum tones, shot here and there with an accent of graphite. (more…)
Stunning silk charmeuse with red, white and blue flowers on navy SOLD
GONE, THANK YOU
Oh my gosh, the quality of this silk is sensational.
And so is the print design, the graphics…it’s just captivating! (more…)
