warp Explanation: I think it is about the yarn that forms the fabric base. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warp_(weaving) In weaving cloth, the warp is the set of lengthwise yarns that are held in tension on a frame or loom. The yarn that is inserted over-and-under the warp threads is called the weft, woof, or filler. Each individual warp thread in a fabric is called a warp end or end.[1][2] Warp means "that which is thrown across" (Old English wearp, from weorpan, to throw, cf. German werfen, Dutch werpen). Very simple looms use a spiral warp, in which a single, very long yarn is wound around a pair of sticks or beams in a spiral pattern to make up the warp.[3] |

one sheet of fabric Explanation: sounds like it was one piece or one sheet of fabric. I would assume that the "frame" of a loom was called "base", and a piece / sheet of fabric produced would be a "основa" ("base") |
