A deep crimson, with enough texture to make a simple piece feel considered.
There is more than one way to bring interest to a red vestment. Wells does it through the weave: a textured solid in a rich crimson shade, without a decorative pattern repeat. The medium weight cotton and viscose blend brings both body and drape, giving a simple design something lovely to begin with.
Projects and possibilities
Consider Wells for a chasuble, stole, altar frontal or banner. If you plan to embroider it, try your design on an offcut first so the stitching and textured ground work well together. Beyond church sewing, the same color and texture are worth sampling for cushions, table runners and costume pieces.

Planning your project
Wells is a special purchase, limited to the stock we have on hand. If you are making a set, plan the whole project before ordering so you can purchase the yardage together. A swatch will help you see whether this particular crimson belongs beside your chosen lining and trims.
Yardage and swatches
For your sewing project, choose By The Yard. A quantity of 1 is 1 yard.
A swatch lets you see the color and feel the cloth before choosing your yardage. Select Swatch Sample. Each sample is approximately 4 × 6 inches; a quantity of 1 orders one sample, and a higher quantity orders additional samples. Add yardage separately when you are ready for the project.
Swatch order terms: Please choose your cut carefully. Once processed, swatches are final sale and cannot be cancelled, refunded or exchanged, including when a swatch was selected instead of yardage.
Before you cut and sew
Use an offcut to test cleaning, pressing and any embroidery before you begin. Once the fabric is lined or embellished, consider those additions when choosing how to care for the completed piece.
Questions about this fabric
Is Wells a printed or patterned fabric?
Wells is a textured solid. Its character comes from the weave and crimson color, rather than a print or repeating decorative motif. That can be a lovely starting point for a simple shape or carefully chosen embellishment.
Can I order more for a later project?
Because this is a limited special purchase, we cannot assure future availability. If you hope to make coordinating pieces, check the stock and include their yardage in your plans now.
