To my delight I received the email that the Superfine Wool had arrived from being processed in Italy.
When it was claimed that this wool was 'as soft as cashmere' they were not kidding.Walking into the Garment Lab to collect my share of the wool this week, I was like a giddy little school girl. I am sure they all think I am nuts in there. As a confessed fabri-holic this is like heaven for me. I was given 10 glorious meters of fabric. The wool is incredible. The draping qualities are divine. Excited would be an understatement.
I am constantly mindful and grateful to the WA Farmers and their families, who have given us this wool and for Anne Farren and the WA Department for Agriculture and Food and other sponsors for making this possible.
The next steps are to finalise the colour pallet, dye the fabric and turn this incredible 'Superfine Wool', into 5 garments fit for the runway at Perth Fashion Festival. And all before September 9th!!! Yikes! I'd better get to it!
