Why does that guest keep using the word "fabrication" as if to mean "the fabric from which something is made."
It does NOT mean that. It actually means a deliberately-constructed lie:

"Theresa May's statement in parliament was a total and utter fabrication."

Pippa Gordon's squealing excitement at finding a thumbhole in her garment was a fabrication.
 
Same when they use “malleable” when describing the soft nature of a leather handbag. My understanding of malleable is something that can be hammered into shape.

As for Me, Myself or I, I give up. They make themselves sound ridiculous.

Don't you want to buy a nice Kipling buttery soft, malleable handbag?

Malleable (adjective) - (of a metal or other material) able to be hammered or pressed into shape without breaking or cracking.
OR we could go with the alternative meaning - easily influenced; pliable.
"they are as malleable and easily led as sheep" to which could be added QVC presenters & many of their customers.

I think "pliant" would be more apt.
