Best of the Rest

These are the fabrics I currently have in stock.
I use them when presenting my work in person, or when testing new designs and color combinations.
They will remain available here until they are either sold — or used by me personally.

Warm regards,

Underbara tyger och en fantastisk service

Wonderful fabric - a print true to period (hard to find!) and material pleasant to work with. I needed it for a dress for a museum Biedermeier project, so historical accuracy was key. The shop Owner answered all my questions quickly, competently and with great dedication. The print arrived well in time. Will definitely order from them again!
