[1]Material aspects: In mundane parlance, fabric in dreams is a tactile representation of something we need to know or remember.
A rough fabric might denote a difficulty and a smooth fabric or material a carefully crafted project. Seeing fabric which has been mended or patched suggests that our original thoughts perhaps had an inherent flaw.
A patch of the same colour may be an attempt to cover this up, whereas one of a different fabric or texture highlights a perhaps innovative solution.
[2]Everything is connected to everything else. Fabric symbolizes the “thread of life,” a suggestion to “weave” together the threads of experience and your own personality to create a whole.

The colour and texture may be important in interpretation.
