FAQs

What is deadstock fabric?

Deadstock fabric refers to unused rolls of fabric that are leftover from a mill's production or a brand's collection. It's a way to reuse materials that might otherwise go to landfill, making it a more sustainable choice.

Can I order more than one metre?

Yes, you can order fabric by the metre. The fabric will be cut as one continuous piece, no matter how many metres you order.

Is this fabric suitable for upholstery?

This is a lightweight poplin fabric, best suited for clothing, quilting, and light home decor items. It is generally not durable enough for heavy upholstery.

What does C10-Mint refer to?

C10-Mint is the product code or SKU for this specific fabric variant.

How often do you get new deadstock fabrics?

New deadstock fabrics are added as unique finds become available. Due to the nature of deadstock, availability is limited and cannot be guaranteed.

What is the best way to wash this fabric to maintain its colour?

Wash at 40 degrees as recommended. For best results and to preserve colour, consider hand washing or using a gentle cycle with similar colours and air drying.

Troubleshooting

Fabric seems to shrink after washing.

Ensure you pre-wash the fabric before cutting and sewing according to the care instructions. Use a lower heat setting for drying if possible.

Difficult to cut straight lines.

Ensure you are using a sharp rotary cutter or fabric scissors. Consider using a cutting mat and ruler for precision.

Thread keeps breaking during sewing.

Check that your sewing machine needle is sharp and appropriate for cotton fabric. Ensure thread tension is correctly set and the fabric is not being forced through the machine.
