On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Eileen Duffey and I am here in Silva, New York and today we are going to talk about fabrics. The tenth fabric we have today is a 100 percent wool tweed which comes from Scotland. It is a wonderful medium weight wool. It is great for jackets, suits, skirts and a line in a beautiful china silk lining would be an absolutely stunning coat or jacket. This fabric can also be found in the garment district in New York City and Scotland as well or on-line. It runs about I would say $27 a yard. It comes in a million colors and for fall, its a wonderful fabric.
