http://goo.gl/0jEoEO I have purchased a swatch set for this cotton "velvet". The colors are fabulous (31 different colors), and it is a nice tight weave, and is machine washable. That being said it is closer to a brushed twill than an actual velvet.
It would make great men's or women's clothing. Thought I would share the source! Sg _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
