washable tweed suiting - spicy red/camel 1.5 yd

If you love the look and feel of a pricey wool tweed but would rather do without the dry cleaning or the price, this is a fabulous alternative! I was fooled by this polyester tweed suiting, which is a dead ringer for a fine wool tweed: quite soft, malleable and easy to work with. The colors are so beautiful: spicy red, camel, loden, dark loden, etc. (PANTONE 18-1550, 16-1334, 17-0510, etc.). It is medium weight with body in the drape, and is perfect for tailored suits, skirts, jackets, etc. It is identical on both sides and has pretty selvedges. Also, a great way to test a new pattern before you cut into your really expensive fabric! Machine wash, gentle, warm, and hang to dry. 1.5 yds.
