We propose an analytic method for predicting the large angle CMBR temperature fluctuations induced by model textures. The model makes use of only a small number of phenomenological parameters which ought to be measured from simple simulations. We derive semi-analytically the $C^l$-spectrum for $2\leq l\leq 30$ together with its associated non-Gaussian cosmic variance error bars. A slightly tilted spectrum with an extra suppression at low $l$ is found, and we investigate the dependence of the tilt on the parameters of the model. We also produce a prediction for the two point correlation function. We find a high level of cosmic confusion between texture scenarios and standard inflationary theories in any of these quantities. However, we discover that a distinctive non-Gaussian signal ought to be expected at low $l$, reflecting the prominent effect of the last texture in these multipoles.
