Soft Furnishing Fabric – Tweed

Tweed is a coarse woollen fabric mostly used for making clothes. With the interior design trend to add more texture in our homes tweed is being seen as a fabric for making stylish curtains along with being an ideal fabric for upholstery. It's durable and hard wearing making it ideal for many soft furnishing projects.


It can also be seen as a covering for vintage amplifiers, for example Fender Tweed. There are many different types of tweed which are given specific names depending where it is manufactured and/or the colour; for example Harris Tweed and Donegal Tweed.
