How to care for your fabric

Our fabric is special and needs to be cared for correctly. Our guidelines are here to help you care for your beautiful new fabrics. We recommend that you prewash any fabrics made from natural fibres as some shrinkage may occur in the same way you plan to wash and dry your future creation. Wash bright and light colours separately as some colours may run in the first few times they are washed. 

Please note, these care instructions are guidelines only and variations will apply to some fabrics. For fabrics such as sequins, beaded, coated, foiled fabrics and delicate items special washing instructions will apply. If you have any questions please contact us. We recommend that you follow our fabric prewash and care instruction guidelines as outlined below as we are unable to accept claims on fabrics which have been laundered incorrectly.

Drycleanable. Machine washable. Bleach may be used on white cotton. Line or tumble dry. Use a warm to hot iron.
