Troubleshooting

Embroidery appears creased

Gently iron the embroidered area on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth, or steam carefully without direct contact.

Top loses its shape

Ensure proper storage by hanging on a padded hanger. Avoid folding for extended periods. Re-shape while damp if necessary and allow to air dry.
