Other Info
It‘s important to note that all fabrics naturally experience some colour fade and shrinkage over time with wash and wear. To minimise colour fading, we suggest using a colour catcher during washes. Expect a shrinkage of up to 10% in the total length of the fabric after washing. Remember, this shrinkage is typical and not indicative of any fabric quality flaw. We highly recommend prewashing your fabrics as you plan to wash your finished garment. If your fabric arrives with a length shorter than what you ordered, please get in touch with us immediately before prewashing. After washing, we are unable to offer a full refund.
When ordering fabric with stretch, please consider a potential variation of up to 5cm in length. This variation is a natural outcome of the measuring and cutting process and should be considered in your project planning.
