The fabrics and haberdashery section at Liberty offers an extensive range of materials, from luxurious silks to practical cotton lawn. Each fabric collection is curated and all carefully chosen so that all the fabrics complement each other and mean you can bring your ideas to life. I loved that they had lots of information about the inspiration behind the collections, I have took pictures to share with you showing the stories behind the two current collections Odyssey and Futur.
