This fabric is ideal for creating warm outerwear like coats and jackets, as well as cozy items such as waistcoats, skirts, bags, cushions, and other home accessories.
Yes, the fabric is designed to be reversible. You can choose to have the printed Wildflower Fusion side or the plain cotton sateen side as the exterior of your project.
The filling is 100% polyester wadding, which provides insulation and a quilted effect.
We recommend using a new, heavy universal needle for best sewing results with this fabric.
Spot cleaning is recommended. If machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry flat. Avoid high heat.
The outer layers are 100% cotton sateen, which is a natural and breathable fiber. The polyester wadding provides insulation.
Ensure you are using a new, heavy universal needle (size appropriate for quilting or denim). Check that your sewing machine is set to a straight stitch and that the tension is correctly balanced.
Use a longer stitch length. Ensure you are guiding the fabric gently and not pulling it through the machine. A walking foot can also help with even feeding of multiple layers.
Use a sharp rotary cutter and a self-healing mat, or high-quality fabric shears. Cut one layer at a time if necessary, or use pattern weights to keep the fabric from shifting.
To achieve the best results when sewing with this heavyweight fabric, it is recommended to use a new, heavy universal needle. Ensure your sewing machine is capable of handling thicker materials. Pre-washing is not explicitly recommended for this type of composite fabric, but always test a small swatch first if attempting to wash before cutting. For care, spot cleaning is advisable for minor stains. If machine washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, and air dry flat. Avoid high heat, as it can damage the wadding and cotton fibers.
