Siena Terracotta Wool Tweed

The Siena Terracotta Wool Tweed Fabric is an elegant, fashionable fabric with plenty of character, characterised by a check pattern measuring approximately 4 x 4 cm. Its background in shades of terracotta and brick red is enriched with small multicoloured yarns that add nuances of blue, green, orange and other shades, creating a surface full of texture and depth.

Its composition of 65% wool and 35% polyester combines the warmth and characteristic look of wool with the durability and stability provided by polyester. It has a width of 150 cm, a highly versatile measurement for various fashion and garment-making projects.

The Siena Terracotta design forms an elegant grid using yarns of different colours, thicknesses and textures. The predominance of warm tones lends character to the fabric, whilst the small multicoloured accents enhance the pattern and give it that rich, irregular look so characteristic of wool tweed. A particularly attractive choice for tailoring-inspired garments and Chanel-style jackets.

Suggested uses: Chanel-style jackets, blazers, lightweight coats, jacket and skirt ensembles, waistcoats, skirts, dresses, trousers and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: as this is a check tweed with checks measuring approximately 4 cm, it is advisable to allow a small extra margin of fabric to match the pattern on the fronts, sides, sleeves and pockets. Overcast or neaten the edges after cutting to prevent fraying. For jackets and structured garments, adding a lining fabric will help achieve a neater, more professional finish. Always carry out a test ironing first and use a woollen cloth to preserve the texture of the tweed.
