Discover the Whaleys Fabric Tool Kit, a practical resource designed to help fashion and costume students develop their fabric knowledge and identify suitable materials for their creative projects.
At the heart of the kit is a curated selection of fabric swatches from the Whaleys range, accompanied by a printed Fabric Periodic Table that organises fabrics by their properties and potential garment end uses.
Starting with essential calico and toile-making fabrics, the guide progresses through everyday garment fabrics, stretch and jersey, luxury dress and occasionwear, and specialist fabrics used in garment construction and tailoring. A dedicated Sustainable, Organic & Lower-Impact category brings together selected organic, recycled and biodegradable fabrics, helping users explore alternative material choices.
The kit includes:
– Fabric Swatches – a compact selection from the Whaleys range to explore different fabric types, textures and constructions.
– Fabric Periodic Table – a structured reference guide to help identify fabrics and understand their characteristics and suitability for different garment end uses.
– Whaleys branded tape measure – a practical essential for design, pattern cutting and garment-making projects.
Whether you’re learning the fundamentals of fabric selection or developing ideas for a fashion or costume project, the Whaleys Fabric Tool Kit provides a useful starting point for understanding materials and making informed fabric choices.

Delivery charges vary depending on the weight of the fabric being ordered. These will be calculated during the checkout process.
Our fabrics are sourced from a wide range of countries across different continents, including the UK. At Whaleys, we pride ourselves on offering the highest quality fabrics, which is why we take great care in sourcing the best materials, no matter where they come from.
Most of our fabrics are sold in their natural state (base cloth), with the intention that customers will dye or print them themselves. The majority of fabrics are white or cream in appearance.
We can arrange for fabric dyeing. The minimum order is between 300–500 metres, depending on the fabric. Please contact our Sales Office on 01274 576718 for pricing and lead times.
The coating on the fabric may rub off if folded, which can result in a patchy appearance when printed. Therefore, coated fabrics must be rolled. Please note that rolled fabrics cannot be sent via Royal Mail and must be shipped using our carrier services.
Yes, you can request samples of any fabric listed on the website (with a few exceptions). You may order up to five samples per request for £2.50, as many times as you like. We offer free shipping for UK orders. International orders are charged £7.00 to cover administration and postage.
