FAQs
Can this lace be dyed?
Since this is a synthetic-based lace, standard fabric dyes intended for cotton will not be effective; use dyes specifically formulated for synthetic fibers if you must change the color.
Is the lace stretchy?
This trim is primarily non-stretch, making it best suited for straight edges or structured garments rather than form-fitting apparel.
What is the exact width of the trim?
The trim is exactly 50mm wide.
Can I use this for outdoor projects?
While durable, it is not explicitly UV-treated, so extended exposure to direct sunlight may cause yellowing or degradation over time.
Is the trim provided in a single piece?
Yes, the 10-meter length is supplied as a continuous roll.
Troubleshooting
Trim bunching or puckering while sewing
Reduce the tension on your sewing machine and ensure the feed dogs are properly engaging the fabric and lace together.
Edges fraying after cutting
Apply a small amount of clear fabric glue or heat-seal the edge carefully with a flame to prevent unravelling.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Generous 10-meter supply for large projects
- Easy to clean with machine washing
- Durable weave resistant to fraying
- Standardized 50mm width works with most sewing patterns
Cons
- Ivory color may not match bright white fabrics
- Single design style limits aesthetic variety
- Not suitable for high-heat tumble drying or ironing
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure your fabric is pre-washed to prevent shrinkage differences between the lace and the base material. Use a standard sewing machine foot or a dedicated lace-foot attachment to keep the trim aligned.
Care Instructions
- Washing: Machine wash at a maximum temperature of 40 degrees centigrade.
- Drying: Air dry naturally. Avoid high-heat tumble drying which can distort the lace pattern.
- Ironing: Use a cool setting and a pressing cloth to avoid direct heat contact with the lace synthetic fibers.
