How should I prepare my fabrics?

All of our fabrics have been designed to help prevent colour bleeding - however, there is always a risk of this happening and this is dependent upon the materials and methods that the manufacturer used. So, it is recommended that you hand wash your chosen fabric in cold water prior to doing your project. This also allows for the changes in size and shapes that fabrics can undergo when it is wet, and it will help to ensure a professional looking finish.

How should I care for my woven apparel fabric?

Well, that does depend on which of our fabrics you have chosen, and we recommend that you read the care instructions that come with your purchase before you begin. It is essential that you clean these fabrics gently, and always check to see if your fabric allows for machine washing. However, it is important to note that agitation in the washing machine may damage some fabrics, and for particularly delicate options, hand washing is the only way to ensure that they will not be damaged. Use a mild detergent, and always avoid the use of any harsh chemicals or abrasive solutions, including chlorine and bleach.

Is there anything else I need to consider?
