I'm about to make an upper-class Elizabethan Gown and am looking
for a lovely rich brocade to use in earthy colour combinations - can
anyone recommend a place online that I might go to that would have a
design that is close to period accurate and is of a natural fibre?
Calico Corners is a chain expensive fabric/curtain store. They have
damask silk in their orderable racks, but it's (IIRC) $50/yard. Lovely
though.
Side note: I was taught that it's not a brocade unless it has a gold
thread in the design. Otherwise it's something else. Not sure if this
is true or not!
