Yes, its durability and easy-care nature make it a popular choice for schoolwear and play clothes.
Polycotton blends generally have minimal shrinkage, but it is standard practice to pre-wash the fabric before starting your project.
Absolutely. It is stable and easy to piece, making it a great choice for quilt tops.
Depending on the specific garment, a lining may be optional. Because it is 97gsm, it is semi-opaque, so use a lining if you require complete opacity.
No, this is a non-stretch woven fabric, which makes it very easy to sew as it will not warp or shift.
Use a zigzag stitch or an overlocker/serger on all raw edges immediately after cutting to prevent unravelling.
Ensure you are using a sharp, universal needle and that your thread tension is properly calibrated for a lightweight fabric.
To ensure the longevity of your Minerva Core Range fabric, always pre-wash it before sewing to account for any potential minor shrinkage. Use a universal sewing machine needle (size 70/10 or 80/12 is typically recommended for this weight) and a standard stitch length of 2.5mm.
