Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using the recommended 40-degree wash and avoid harsh detergents. Ironing while slightly damp can help restore softness.
Thread tension issues during sewing.
Adjust your sewing machine's tension settings. Use a fine needle appropriate for cotton fabrics and consider using a slightly shorter stitch length for lawn fabrics.
Fabric snagging or pulling.
Ensure your sewing machine needle is sharp and the correct size for the fabric weight. Avoid pulling the fabric taut while sewing; let the machine feed it evenly.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Recommended to wash at 40 degrees Celsius.
- Drying: Air drying is preferable to maintain fabric integrity. Tumble drying on low heat may be possible, but test on a swatch first.
- Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting, preferably while the fabric is slightly damp.
- Pre-washing: It is always recommended to pre-wash fabric before cutting and sewing to account for any potential shrinkage.
