Wool Samples - 12 Piece Set - Teal & Forest Green - Curated Materials No. 7
Wool Samples - 12 Piece Set - Teal & Forest Green - Curated Materials No. 7
Inspired by pine woods, deep rock pools and the last green of the year. A generous bundle of 12 soft wool and wool-blend suiting samples in teal, petrol blue, bottle green, sage, olive and charcoal, with a denim-blue wool-linen. There's a ribbed twill, a brushed teal wool, a herringbone, a fuzzy grey tweed and a run of plain greens for patching and repair. Some samples carry Italian mill labels, including Trabaldo Togna, Zignone and Reda. They are rich, calm and easy to stitch, and the colours sit well together.
Each bundle varies slightly, as every piece is reclaimed.

Fabric guide
A mix of plain, ribbed twill, brushed, herringbone and tweed weaves. Several swatches still carry their original mill labels.
Suggested uses
Patching and visible mending, elbow patches, patchwork and quilt blocks, appliqué, needle books, pin cushions, coasters, small pouches, bookmarks, hot water bottle covers and rag wreaths. The plain greens make patches that don't draw attention, and the teals and denim blue look good as a contrast.
Notes
These are mill samples, so some have printed labels and pinked edges. Fibre content varies from piece to piece, from 100% wool to wool blends. Some pieces have small marks or fraying. Wool and wool-blend fabric can shrink, so wash a test piece before using it in a project. This is a one-off bundle. The photos show exactly what you will receive.

🌿 Why Choose Reclaimed Materials?
Reclaimed materials reduce waste in two powerful ways: they keep textiles out of landfill, and reduce the demand for new materials that require energy, water, and raw resources to produce.
By choosing reclaimed, you’re not just sourcing fabric — you’re taking part in a more thoughtful, circular way of making.
We also believe reclaimed materials invite a different kind of creativity — one that’s more resourceful, intuitive, and personal.
🧵 About Reclaimed Materials
Each piece is unique. Photos give a good indication of what you’ll receive, but tones, textures, and sizes may vary slightly from batch to batch.
Because these materials have had a previous life, you may notice small marks or imperfections. We see these as part of their character — not flaws, but stories that make your finished piece one of a kind.
All materials are carefully checked to ensure they’re suitable for creative reuse.
💸 Our Pricing
Our materials are priced to be accessible, while reflecting their quality and potential.
Because we work with reclaimed and surplus textiles, availability and pricing may vary over time. Each batch is different, and once it’s gone, it’s gone.
We aim to offer materials at significantly below typical retail value — making it easier to experiment, create, and make more with less.
🔄 Where Our Materials Come From
Our materials come from local makers, businesses, and creative projects that no longer need them.
Through our Stash Swap programme, fabrics and yarns are donated and shared within the community. Materials that aren’t rehomed during our swap events are then sorted, checked, and prepared by our team.
We make them available again through our online shop and textile reuse pop-ups — keeping them in circulation for as long as possible.
