IC023 Faille Catherine Vibrant Green / Mlt Softened - 100% Cotton Fabric - Light (4.4 oz/yd2) - 1.50 Yards, Width 59"
IC023 is a 59" wide Plain Weave Faille in 100% Cotton.
Faille has the flattened ribbed pattern of grosgrain and the uninterrupted crispy sheen of the silky-smooth surface of Satin. This combination gives Faille the distinctive hand and appearance it is known for - textured, lustrous, luxurious, and crisp.
This cloth has become the fabric of choice for top interior and fashion designers. You have seen it used for formal dresses and gowns; it is also a popular pick for making skirts, blouses, and summer dresses for ladies and girls. Faille has made its name in home textiles and is used for bedding, decorative pillows, and drapes as well.
This fabric is at the higher end of the lightweight categories and weighs a lavish 4.4 ounces a square yard with its remarkable texture and unforgettable feel.
This Faille fabric can be woven from various fibers, but nature-made fibers are far more pleasant to wear and much easier to work with. That’s why we made this out of 100% cotton.
FS exclusive hand-painted artwork is printed with the best available machinery, using reactive dye ink that gives long-lasting colors and is not harmful to the body, to transfer these paintings onto 100% Cotton fabric.
We also brought three solid colors: white, beige, and black, to accompany your printed cloth.
All designs are created and available exclusively at F|S.com.
The cloth is Softened so we have added a softener to give it a silkier hand. The fabric has not been laundered so shrinkage will still have to be taken into consideration (shrinkage depends on fabric weave and laundering method).

Absolutely beautiful
I feel like I'm late in reviewing this fabric, as it doesn't have many reviews, yet it is SO incredibly pretty! One thing I really love about it (other than the VIBRANT color) is that there is no recognizable repeat in the print, if you know what I mean. It just looks like somebody tossed a bunch of flowers up in the air, and they landed where they landed. I've made a peasant-style top out of this fabric from an OLD Christie Brinkley pattern, which I particularly like because of the cut of the sleeves (exaggerated width above the gathered ruffle at the sleeve hemline) and because it doesn't actually have a ruffle that falls down over the bust, just a short little stand-up ruffle at the gathered neckline. Anyway, I also made an ankle-length, bias-cut skirt with a 360-degree circle ruffle around the bottom, another favorite pattern. (Haven't actually worn them together.) This fabric gets compliments EVERY time I wear it: from the postmaster to the waiter, from a fellow beach-goer in passing, from my girlfriends in our devotional group to little kids. And, by the way, it coordinates beautifully with the "Classic Green" linen. I made the top first, then the skirt. The top had been washed two or three times before I made the skirt, but I can't tell that the top has faded at all. Still, I'm going to be sure, when I wash one, I wash the other, just in case I decide to wear them as a two-piece dress. Oh, I would call the background green color neutral to cool, not a warm/yellow green. I LOVE it.
A coworker asked for two "jumpers" for her 19-month old nieces. Vibrant colors with "English" blooms. Used the free Phoebe tank for inspiration.
