Made textile on different date (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fabricated

'made' is the definition.
(fabricating is a kind of making)

'textile on different date' is the wordplay.
'textile' becomes 'fabric' (synonyms).
'on' indicates putting letters inside.
'different' indicates an anagram (letters placed in a different order).
'date' is an anagram of 'ated'.
'fabric' put within 'ated' is 'FABRICATED'.

(Other definitions for fabricated that I've seen before include "Made" , "Constructed; invented" , "cooked up?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
