Fabric Sample Guide
New and improved 2024 edition!
Struggle to identify fabrics when buying online? Have something tangible for reference at home when working out what fabric to use for your project, and purchasing what you need, with our handy fabric sample booklet.
This guide features 40 samples of our most common types of fabrics, to give you a good idea what they look and feel like. You'll be able to see how fibre contents affect the fabric and what different weights feel like between your fingers. Ideal for when you can't get to your fabric shop!
We also feature a short guide in the front about how to choose a fabric, talking you through important elements like weight, stretch, type and widths. For each fabric, we also suggest what it can be used for and the needle type you'll need to sew it.

What a handy resource- thank you.
Very pleased with my Sample Guide (although somewhat small) it has lots of very useful information. Arrived very quickly and a must have aide in my sewing room.
In my opinion when it arrived I was a bit underwhelmed with its contents. If it's being used as a foot in the door for somebody to purchase more items I think it may actually discourage me.
This is a really helpful booklet that is ideal to show different fabrics and how they feel. Has already helped me to make good choices with fabrics! I usually feel totally overwhelmed in a fabric shop.
It has great information in it but the quality was poor. It has all the details on fabric (including the needle type!) and sample but I wouldn’t get this again for the price. The samples weren’t delivered flat I don’t know if it was just the delivery or the overall quality.
