I am just completing a dress for my little girl from Candle on the Hill and will be starting on a dress for myself. I have found the patterns to be very easy to follow.

How fun to be sewing modest little dresses for your girls.
My first sewing was matching dresses for me and my 4 girls at that time. 5 matching outfits.
Now we have 6 girls and we love sewing matching dresses for all 7 of us. They look really nice, and it's easy to keep up with the girls in a crowd or at churches.
Happy sewing sister!
Love, ~ sister Darlene ~

I looked at my samples from Stauffer's Dry Goods and they have the following crepe material:
Poly creme-fraiche (it's wrinkly) Poly softique crepe (very smooth) Poly lyric crepe (also wrinkly) Poly Irish crepe (smooth)
They would probably have some idea of what you are looking for. Stauffer's Dry Goods 76 Stauffer Rd. Mt. Pleasant Mills, PA 17853 570-539-8365
They have a nice sample pack of fabrics available for $3.00. They offer very good service and great prices.

When I googled Windsor Crepe, a few references came up from old books on google saying Windsor Crepe is a cotton fabric of a certain type.
Crepe fabrics today seem to be poly.
What is your intended purpose for this fabric??

Good Day, and thank you all for your replies. Windsor crepe is a printed crepe, used for dress making. I believe it's a new fabric, hasn't been around long. and it's from the US . I have a some windsor crepe fabric, but I can't track down the actual store. I have 3 relatives getting married this year, so I'm looking for nice printed crepe for all family members. Blessings...and thanks again
