IC023 Faille Artemina White / Mlt Softened - 100% Cotton Fabric - Light (4.4 oz/yd2) - 20.00 Yards, Width 59"
IC023 is a 59" wide Plain Weave Faille in 100% Cotton.
Faille has the flattened ribbed pattern of grosgrain and the uninterrupted crispy sheen of the silky-smooth surface of Satin. This combination gives Faille the distinctive hand and appearance it is known for - textured, lustrous, luxurious, and crisp.
This cloth has become the fabric of choice for top interior and fashion designers. You have seen it used for formal dresses and gowns; it is also a popular pick for making skirts, blouses, and summer dresses for ladies and girls. Faille has made its name in home textiles and is used for bedding, decorative pillows, and drapes as well.
This fabric is at the higher end of the lightweight categories and weighs a lavish 4.4 ounces a square yard with its remarkable texture and unforgettable feel.
This Faille fabric can be woven from various fibers, but nature-made fibers are far more pleasant to wear and much easier to work with. That’s why we made this out of 100% cotton.
FS exclusive hand-painted artwork is printed with the best available machinery, using reactive dye ink that gives long-lasting colors and is not harmful to the body, to transfer these paintings onto 100% Cotton fabric.
We also brought three solid colors: white, beige, and black, to accompany your printed cloth.
All designs are created and available exclusively at F|S.com.
The cloth is Softened so we have added a softener to give it a silkier hand. The fabric has not been laundered so shrinkage will still have to be taken into consideration (shrinkage depends on fabric weave and laundering method).

Customer Questions and Answers
I purchased 2 yards of the Faille Artemina White fabric. I love it, however the pattern on the fabric is larger than I had thought, and I don't want it to over power me. Can you give me some suggestions on what pattern would be suitable for this print? Thank you, Lynne Patera

Our lovely cotton faille patterns would make beautiful statement dresses but if you feel that it may be too large for you maybe take a look at our camisole pattern or Ida skirt pattern that we have available as free pattern downloads.
This fabric is absolutely gorgeous, but the repeat of the pattern is 24-36", and is much too large for me. At 5'1", a repeat of one foot is quite big enough for me. I did enjoy seeing it in person, however. Good luck to you all, and thank you for letting me see it.
I've bought 3 of these new fabrics and they are all better than the pictures. Love the beautiful surface feel, the amazing color and designs, and can't wait to start sewing!
The Artemina print is deliciously large scale in a dreamy, loose, painterly watercolor style. I'm no botanist but a few of the flowers I can identify on the print include poppies, alliums, proteas, and roses, each in perfectly saturated spring tones of lavender, orange, peach, yellow, and pink. Upon opening up my package of this fabric, I had to pick my jaw up off the floor as I couldn't believe how even more beautiful this print was in person. The cotton faille is a great substrate for such a print, as it truly absorbs and highlights the colors in such a lovely and rich way. Since I decided to make a dress for my daughter, I loved the fact this fabric is 100% cotton and was printed with non-toxic ink.
Made a lovely summer shift from this fabric, sooooo taken with the colors and flowers. Side vents for comfort from white linen.
