Government and industry information notes that the majority of severe and fatal burn injuries are due to the individual’s clothing igniting and continuing to burn, not by the exposure itself. Therefore, extensive independent testing of FR clothing fabrics must be conducted to evaluate the protective capabilities these fabrics exhibit when exposed to hazards such as electric arc flash and flash fires.

M’Liss has designed an exclusive line of fabrics featuring a variety of vibrant colors – a M’Liss specialty – and some of her favorite and popular themes. Her artsy floral groups include: M’Liss’s Garden, Garden Court, and Spring Bouquet - all inspired by her gardens. In addition, her new line of fabrics also incorporates the travel-themed Experience the World with M’Liss, and the whimsical feline collection simply entitled, Meow. “These designs were very fun to do. And, because they are pre-coordinated, they will save customers time,” said M’Liss. All of the fabrics are 100% cotton, with a total of over 40 designs available at a price of $6.99 per yard. Look for additional collections, including a dog-inspired line, to be available in stores later this year.
