Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ideal width for efficient cutting layouts
  • Machine washable at 40°C

  • May require regular ironing to maintain a crisp appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before you begin your project, pre-wash the fabric at 40°C to account for any potential initial shrinkage. Due to its stable nature, you can use standard universal sewing machine needles. When pinning, consider using fine-gauge pins to avoid leaving visible marks in the fabric weave. After construction, store your finished garments on hangers to reduce creasing, and iron on a setting appropriate for cotton-blend weaves.
