I always buy the material, then I figure out what to do with it. My 
question is, this kind of silk is often designed for draperies and may 
be too large for the human body. I like the antique gold, but I am 
wondering how wide that stripe is. They do seem to have swatches.


Some of their apparel fabrics are ugly, though.

Given the prices of the fabrics, $25 for some of the swatch books 
would be a good investment.
