Teal blues and greens are also a popular choice for festive party wear, but they are a great transitional fabric for all seasons, if you pick the right dressmaking fabric it'll work for many a special occasion. Our liquid satin range is always popular around this time of year with emerald and bottle green being our fastest selling fabrics. Coincidentally they are the fabrics we get the most feedback from in the form of customer makes.
