scampoli (artistici/decorati) di tessuto


Explanation:
Vero che normalmente il termine é associato ai campioni di tessuto, ma qui si tratta evidentemente di tessuti da decorare per poi essere indossati, non mostrati ad un buyer.

una piccola collezione (di tessuti)


Explanation:
o diverse piccole collezioni.

Devo ammettere che sono rimasta perplessa dell'uso della parola swatch icome campione, non mi suonava proprio, per me non ha senso l'uso di campioni per creare una intera linea di abbigliamento e quindi sono andata a vedere nel mio Merriam Webster --- e fra le definizioni di swatch c'è anche "a small collection" - credo che sia l'interpretazione giusta, e quindi te lo sottopongo.
