Our Fabrics
Fabric Specifications
Our fabrics have been tried and tested, over and over again and the results are great, which is why we stock what we do! Below is a list of specifications for our fabrics that are currently available. We recommend that you pre-wash your textiles prior to cutting and sewing as shrinkage will occur with most natural fibres. Important to note that the care instructions are guidelines only.
All fabric orders are measured in increments of 50cm (0.5m). We will always supply your order as one continuous piece unless it is advertised as a pre-cut remnant.
