Introduction:
Morris Golden Autumn Lily this classic print cotton Pima lawn has all the hallmarks of their iconic designs; an intricately detailed and beautiful colour palette with the softest handle that feels like silk yet is durable, cooling yet warming and machine washable.
Colour:
Morris Golden Autumn Lily boasts an iconic historical (1899) design with a clever diagonal arrangement of Arts and Crafts style intertwining exotic florals. Tiger lilies entwine their elegant stems amongst tendrils, foliage and buds of other complementary-hued flowers in a rhythmic style all over this exquisitely soft cotton lawn. A palette of cool blue soft beige, mist grey, and lavender sit in juxtaposition with the warm coral, and red. A fresh white background provides the perfect backdrop for this iconic design.
Properties:
Seriously soft, finely woven, lightweight, yet with excellent opacity and good stability plus a soft and elegant drape quality. This fabric will gather, tuck, pleat and form elegant fullness. For crisp details like collars, cuffs and button bands we recommend the use of a light/medium weight iron on interfacing.

Customer Reviews
So soft to the touch, Fabworks description of "seriously soft" is an excellent description. It washes well with very little shrinkage at all at 30C wash. The colours on my monitor are very accurate with that of the fabric itself. The red/orange flowers are dominant but add a lovely touch to the otherwise gentle tones. Love it. More like this please, Fabworks.
Stunning pattern and colours on a smooth fine base cloth. So far I have only yet used it as contrasting element on a shirt that has another main fabric, but I will be using the rest of the length I bought to make myself a blouse. Very much looking forward to that time! In the meantime here is the shirt (still in the making) with the beautiful highlights as you can see.
