FABRIC GLOSSARY SWATCH SET
Set of 115 Swatches, designed to give examples of actual fabrics for Fabric Glossary, and which also clarify the Fabric Reference text.

This is a swatch set with a difference: it provides a fabric example for each of 115 major Fabric Files (which contain an additional 11 separate sub-Files). These files act as a unique fabric dictionary. They also define or explain, describe, and provide black and white illustrations for some 600 fabric names and terms.

However the Swatch Set has also been designed (and examples selected) to represent all the components of fabric study as followed through in most textbooks. This is particularly true for Fabric Reference, where in eight full pages of Swatch Applications Listings, the appropriate Glossary Files are cited as an illustration of characteristics of various fibers, yarns, fabrics and finishes, including dyeing and printing effects, when each of these is discussed.
