Frequently Asked Questions About Designer Fabrics



What can I make with your designer fabrics?
Our versatile designer fabrics are ideal for creating bespoke curtains, Roman blinds, scatter cushions, and lampshades. Many of our heavier-weight fabrics are also perfect for light to severe domestic upholstery projects.

How do I calculate how much fabric I need for curtains?
To calculate fabric for curtains, you will need your track or pole width and the finished drop. Remember to account for pattern repeats, heading types (like pinch pleat or eyelet), and hems. We recommend consulting with a professional curtain maker for exact measurements.

Are your fabrics suitable for upholstery?
Yes, many of our fabrics from brands like Kai and Ashley Wilde are durable enough for upholstery. Please check the 'Martindale rub test' score on individual product pages to ensure it meets your requirements for light, general, or severe domestic use.

Can I order fabric samples?
Absolutely. We highly recommend ordering fabric samples before making a final purchase. This allows you to see the true colours under your home lighting, feel the texture, and match it to your existing interior decor.
