This Minerva Exclusive Petal Spray quilted fabric is for crafters looking to create warm and stylish garments like coats, jackets, and waistcoats, or home accessories. Its key benefit is the dual-sided design offering versatility with a vibrant Petal Spray print on one side and a plain coordinating sateen on the other, plus excellent insulation. A slight caveat is its heavy weight, which requires a specific needle for best sewing results.

The reversible design allows you to use either the Petal Spray print or the plain coordinating sateen as the 'right' side of your project. This offers great flexibility, enabling you to create items with contrasting linings or choose a different look depending on your preference.
Yes, it can be used for children's outerwear like jackets or vests. However, always ensure finished garments meet safety standards, especially regarding drawstrings and embellishments.
It is ideal for warm outerwear such as coats, jackets, and waistcoats. It's also excellent for accessories like tote bags, pencil cases, and home decor items like cushions due to its insulated and structured nature.
The diamond quilting sandwiches a layer of polyester wadding between the two cotton sateen layers. This provides significant insulation for warmth and adds a plush, slightly padded texture to the fabric.
No, the two outer layers are 100% cotton sateen, but the wadding layer sandwiched between them is 100% polyester.
Yes, it is recommended to pre-wash the fabric according to the care instructions (machine wash cold, gentle cycle) to account for any potential shrinkage before cutting and sewing your project.
Its weight is classified as heavy at 365 grams per square metre. This is due to the combination of the two cotton sateen layers and the polyester wadding, giving it substance and body suitable for outerwear.
Ensure you are using a new, heavy universal needle (90/14 or larger) or a specialist needle for coated/heavy fabrics. Check that your machine is properly threaded and in good working order.
Use longer stitch lengths and walk your fabric through the machine rather than forcing it. Consider using a walking foot attachment for even feeding.
Always iron on the wrong (plain) side of the fabric using a medium heat setting and a pressing cloth. Avoid direct high heat on the printed side.
The quilting pattern should minimise this, but if significant shifting occurs, consider adding a few temporary basting stitches or using a spray adhesive designed for fabrics.
Sewing Recommendations:
Compatibility:
This fabric is compatible with standard sewing machines capable of handling heavier materials. It pairs well with other medium to heavy-weight linings or interfacings if extra structure is desired, though its inherent quilting provides significant body.
