Holland & Sherry Home Run
Heavy wool flannel, 4 colourways, 100% wool, 59 in wide. Holland & Sherry's own figures, and how we make it up as draperies in our Fort Lauderdale workroom, from the cloth your designer orders.
4 colourways of heavy wool flannel, 59 in wide
Home Run is one of the Holland & Sherry cloths we make up as draperies: a heavy wool flannel in their Sporting Collection (100% wool, 59 in wide, made in Chile). It comes in 4 colourways, League Pink, Sand, Gravel and Away Grey. Their spec sheet gives its end use as "Upholstery, drapery, wall upholstery, soft goods, and accessories".
At 59 in it is cut up the roll like a conventional drapery cloth: a wide panel is made of joined widths, with each seam hidden inside a pleat or a ripplefold wave. Holland & Sherry's sheet gives the direction as up the roll. The repeat is 0.75 in across, matched at every seam and across the windows of a room, so the yardage is worked out on the repeat rather than the finished size.
Wool is naturally flame resistant but not sun resistant: it fades and weakens in direct sun, so it is lined, and on unshaded south or west glass it wants a solar shade in front of it. It can stretch a little over time in humid air, and like silk it is a protein fibre that wants an air-conditioned room rather than a house closed up for the summer (what each fibre does). At 29 oz per linear yard (900 g per linear metre) it is a heavy cloth, so the track or rod is sized for the weight.
Their drapery note advises hanging the drapery before it is hemmed, so the cloth settles to the room, and lining every drapery, to block the light and protect the face.

What Home Run does at the window, and what it does not
Best use
Home Run is a heavy cloth, the kind that makes a drapery read as tailored: a study, a library, a dining room or a bedroom, pinch pleat or ripplefold on a track or rod sized for the weight, lined, often blackout-lined.
Light and privacy
An opaque cloth, so privacy is complete when it is closed. The lining sets the light: a light-filtering sateen keeps a room glowing, an interlining adds body and quiet, a blackout lining turns a bedroom dark (lining guide).
Cloth and care
100% wool; 29 oz per linear yard (900 g per linear metre); Martindale 35,000 rubs.
Limitations
Not for unshaded south or west glass on its own: the sun fades natural fibres, so a shade goes in front of it there. At 59 in a wide panel is made of joined widths, and the repeat is matched at every seam, which costs yardage. The weight needs a track or rod sized for it; a light decorative rod will bow. No NFPA 701 result in Holland & Sherry's data, so a condo common area or a commercial job that asks for it needs the cloth flame treated with a certificate, if Holland & Sherry can supply it that way, or another cloth.

How Home Run becomes draperies in your home
Your designer specifies
Holland & Sherry sell to the trade, so the cloth is chosen and ordered by your designer, with the colour code and the sample in hand. Not working with a designer? Tell us; we can suggest a cloth we order ourselves.
We measure and give the yardage
We measure the windows, settle the style, the fullness and the lining, and work out the yardage on the width and the repeat, so the order to Holland & Sherry is right the first time.
We make and install
The cloth comes to our Fort Lauderdale workroom, where our five in-house seamstresses cut and sew the draperies, and our own installers hang them on the rod, track or motorized system the window calls for.
Where Home Run works here
We have made Holland & Sherry wool up before: at the Ritz-Carlton Residences Miami Beach the designer's schedule called for two Holland & Sherry wool jacquards, made up as blackout drapery on Lutron Sivoia QS tracks, the reversible flannel hung with its lighter face outward as specified. Home Run would be made the same way: lined, for an air-conditioned room, with a shade in front of it on bright glass.
For the same use, compare Home Run with Ace (wool flannel, 59 in, 15 colourways), Blazer Stripe (wool flannel, 59 in, 5 colourways) and Fair Isle (lambswool Fair Isle, 57 in, 4 colourways).
Home Run: frequently asked
How many colours does Holland & Sherry Home Run come in?
4 colourways on Holland & Sherry's site when we read it on October 7, 2026: League Pink, Sand, Gravel and Away Grey. Every one is listed on this page with its code; Holland & Sherry's photographs of each are on their own site, linked from the table.
Can I buy Home Run from you?
No. Holland & Sherry sell to the trade, so your designer orders the cloth from them. We make it up and install it: we measure and work out the yardage, the cloth is sent to our Fort Lauderdale workroom, and our seamstresses cut and sew the draperies.
Do you match the Home Run repeat?
Always. Holland & Sherry give the repeat as 0.75 in across; we match it at every seam and from window to window, so the yardage your designer orders is worked out on the repeat.
Does Home Run need a lining?
Holland & Sherry say every drapery should be lined, to block the light and protect the face, and we agree. The lining is chosen for the room: a light-filtering sateen for a living room, an interlining for body and quiet, a blackout lining for a bedroom (lining guide).
What does Home Run cost made up as draperies?
The cloth is bought through your designer at Holland & Sherry's price, so our quote covers what we make and install: the fabrication, the lining, the track or rod and the installation, worked out from the measure. Ask for a workroom price with the button above and we come back with a figure, not a range.
