They are both lovely fabrics and a decent weight.
What are you making?

I've had a look at these as well  and they do look lovely  AND as they are the right width  and whilst the purple looks a tad dark I think I'll  give them a call to see it they can send me a sample  - trouble is that dark purple reads as black under most stage light ( and I just lerve lerve lerve purple and pink!)
