Discount Fabric Online

I'd suggest a good textiles handbook then, as you've got a mixture of fabrics and fibers listed there.

For instance, there is silk muslin, silk twill, silk satin, silk charmeuse, silk dupioni, silk noil, silk brocade, silk jersey, silk interlock....

If you were here in the US, I'd probably suggest Debbie Anne Gioello's pair of textbooks to you:

http://www.amazon.com/Profiling-Fabrics-Properties-Performance-Construction/dp/0870052594/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_4

As a starter, you might try: http://www.ntgclarity.com/ICCF&D/index2.htm or the wikipedia articles on those terms. Note that UK calico is US muslin, and US calico is printed muslin, if I understand the British nomenclature correctly.
