I have seen you say few times that "no textile ever is finished before it's been wet and dried again...

The Last Of The Fabrics.

The last of the fabrics for the project has arrived - a 2/2 twill woven from the same yarns as the previous plainweave fabric. It's now hanging out to dry after being fulled just like the others... and it's beautiful. Really, really beautiful.
