There are six sumptuous yarns that make up this gorgeous birdseye weave. Pale marled grey, charcoal with undertones of brown, and a natural white sit together to form the warp. The warp is like the fabric’s base layer or it’s foundation (hover over the photographs for a close-up of this colour detailing). The weft yarns are the bespoke colours that bring the fabric to life. The delicious multi tonal yarns in the weft of Nature's Song - Jay Birdseye feature a blend of delightful blue (like the pops of blue on Jay's wings), alongside the charcoal and marled grey (which also appear in the warp). Combining these yarns creates mesmerising depth within this complex and unique weave.

This stunning wool tweed brings to mind those striking birds with their characteristic plumage. The rounded, birdseye weave echoing the intelligent, bright eyes, as they hop from branch to branch. Calming and an easy on the eye, if you love the soft delicate tones of this stunning 100% wool, match it with other cool toned tweeds for a complementary palette.

This closely woven woollen has a versatile medium weight and a traditional wool feel, without being rough or itchy. Boasting a stable handle and reassuring drape, Nature's Song is perfect for a plethora of sewing room projects. An intricately woven fabric that will do as you tell it. Woollen fabrics of this kind are easy to sew and will stand the test of time too.

Dressmakers, Costumiers, Interior Designers and Craftspeople; you will find a plethora of uses for this first-rate fabric, taking you through A/W and into spring.

Dressmakers: this fabric is ideal for fashioning classic outerwear pieces and hard-wearing separates. Start with simple yet stylish pencil and A-line skirts with matching waistcoats. Show off your bespoke and colourful wool with shift dresses and pinafore dresses that are super comfy and will always make for key wardrobe pieces – wear with shirts & blouses for a classic look. Choose a complimentary lining to give a sophisticated finish for garments that will soon become perennial favourites. When your sewing skills are more established, jackets, coats and capes will give you all the sewing satisfaction you could wish for! If you want an even more luxe style, feminine Chanel style suits with coordinating velvet trims will look a million dollars. Take this a stage further with your own hand-frayed tweed trim for a true designer style.

Costumiers: you will delight in the blue-green and grey hues of Nature's Song, a hard-wearing fabric superb for outerwear. Naturally weatherproof, natural fibres, natural colours, with a classic wool feel.

Absolutely adorable fabric and very versatile

I love this fabric, the colour is lovely, it is medium weight and warm, perfect for winter!
I decided to make a little set: skirt and blouse, to be worn together, like a dress, or separately.
It turned out great!

Introducing

Fabworks Yorkshire Tweeds

Our Yorkshire Tweed fabrics are created by the same team of expert craftsmen that produce our exclusive HoH Collection. From yarn through to weaving and finishing, these beauties are made int' Yorkshire mills by Yorkshire folk!

Origins:

Made in Yorkshire mills by Yorkshire folk! This is one of Fabworks’ famous Yorkshire-made pure wool fabrics, constructed using surplus yarns that have been recycled & repurposed to create limited runs of exquisite quality classic tweed styles. Locally manufactured within an 8-mile radius of Fabworks, UK-spun wool yarns sourced from across the country are put into weave at some of world’s most renowned tweed mills, located in Huddersfield (West Yorkshire, England, UK). The heritage and quality of these items represents classic British manufacturing, in the heart of The Heavy Woollen District of West Yorkshire, renowned for its expertise in wool textiles manufacture.

These are all bespoke one-off pieces that are only available at Fabworks, conjuring heritage, sentiment and locale into the curation of classy colour palettes with a colourful and eco-friendly sustainable twist.

Properties & Detailing:

Featuring a range of different weaves, weights and finishes, you will find herringbones, twills, tartans, block checks, birdseyes, jacquards, houndstooths & other special weaves. You may even spot some completely unique weaves in this collection, where along with our manufacturer, we have been able to create brand new & completely niche weave patterns. The weavers who produce these beautiful cloths are experts in their field, operating a small family-run setup, just like our Fabworks family, offering completely unique one-off limited runs.
