I have just received an email from this company about their sale - mainly furnishing fabrics I think (haven't looked at all of them yet). Really good prices.

Gosh some of those prices are excellent... now I suppose Salford is not really too far away from me... hmmmm (you enabler you, lol  :P)

Although I am now wondering ... what is 'melange' fabric??

(yes Mme Cholet, being pretend French, knows that melange means mixture... but I have never heard of the term describing fabric before...)

Recycled leather is old leather off cuts and waste which has been shredded and bonded with 'stuff'.

I looked it up a while ago as I was looking at some jersey described this way.  Oooh I thought, new type of fabric.  Nooooo.  What used to be described as marl.
