A classic color looks great with navy and black or a nice contrast for brighter colors. New item from Japan, this binder is a little softer than the Mokuba but still has body and hold. Will bend in slight curves just like petersham. Available in 2 widths the only widths available right now and colors are limited but will get more in the future. Handwash cool hang dry. Iron at max 200 celsius, no dryer. 5/5mm on each side = .2” and 9/9mm on each side = .35” 100% rayon Made in Japan

Crisp vibrant teal wool binder 10mm on each side with a crease for the fold. Please note this stretches cross not with the length. This makes it easy to wrap an edge or for covering a seam but does not stretch lengthwise. The binder will stretch over the boiled wool, not super heavy coating but a medium coat and jacket weight. Feel free to ask questions. It will do curve depending on how severe but I recommend dampening in the curve and steaming to shrink and mold first. Also consider using on another fiber for contrast. made in Japan, each side is 10mm 100% wool

Blue floral melange. Silk with a charmeuse sheen in an abstract kind of pleated texture held in place with a kind of double weave woven underlayer. It is TOP. From the wholesale price this would usually sell for $250.  Width: 55" Carlo Pozzi surplus 86% silk, 14% nylon

Another gorgeous piece, this came from the same lot from Monique. It is spectacular, the tag was not on this but it is of the same quality. There is a fair amount of poly but if feels like there is a blend with some silk but hard to verify. The finish the hand is delicate and beautiful it does not feel like poly at all. It is top and the color is right NOW! Suitable for shift dresses, skirts big or pencil, tops to heavy for blouses, if you want to make a little suit type jacket it will need underlining to give more structure. This is not as heavy and thick as some of the brocades but has body.  Width: 53" Monique LH surplus

This color is the new black it goes with everything. I have 2 widths. The 6mm is flat and suitable for accents as a seam cover, neck/shoulder seams, pockets, take it everywhere. Also there is a binder 10mm on each side. Please note both stretch cross not with the length. This makes it easy to wrap an edge or for covering a seam but does not stretch lengthwise. It will do curve depending on how severe but I recommend dampening in the curve and steaming to shrink and mold first.  made in Japan 100% wool

Interesting piece, colors are grey, butter, black, with accent in aqua thread. No synthetic. The ribbons are similar to hem tape but nicer and folded tight like a spaghetti strap then woven with black and aqua thread that is not poly I think cotton could be rayon. Both sides are usable and offer something interesting. Gives bias - could make an interesting MV Bias Pullover.  Width: 52" rayon, no poly designer deadstock
