[> [> Subject: Bronze sequined or sparkly fabric-UK Author: Anonymous [Edit] Date Posted: 19:42:08 03/15/01 Thu Please does anyone know where I can get some Bronze sequined or sparkly fabric, pref someone in England or Ireland? Replies: -Have you tried Borovick's, in London, yet? E-mail borovickfabrics@btclick.com -Moores in Derry have a website and will send you out samples. They have some fantastic metallic silks! -Have you used the metallic silks yet? I ordered a swatch card from a company, and there's a disclaimer on it about ANY kind of cleaning methods. They said since the silk will shrink but the metallic part doesn't, you'd end up with an extremely crinkly fabric........ [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Metallic Silk Author: Anonymous [Edit] Date Posted: 12:45:01 03/14/02 Thu Metallic dupioni. Does anyone have a source in the US for metallics other than Super Silks? I have found a few in the fabric district of LA, but that is hit or miss. I need a reliable source. Replies: -Try Britex Fabrics in San Francisco (415) 392-2910 and also try www.equilter.com go to home dec and click on silk. They have a beautiful metallic gold and one or 2 others -I don't know if you don't like Supersilks or ...? But, I have happily ordered from them, as well as Boroviks fabrics in England. They were both great and had material in my hands from both in just a few days. --Don't get me wrong, I like Supersilk and have ordered from them, I'm just looking for some other colors, like metallic black, green, red etc ---Boroviks has some great metallics. And, surprisingly quick delivery considering it's in England. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
