Troubleshooting
Fabric has shrunk after washing
Pre-wash all fabric before cutting for future projects. For this piece, iron on a medium heat setting to help smooth out any remaining minor wrinkles.
Thread is catching or breaking during sewing
Ensure you are using the correct needle size for cotton poplin (typically a universal needle size 80/12 or 90/14). Check that your machine is threaded correctly and that the tension is properly set.
Color bleeding during the first wash
Wash the fabric separately or with similar colors on the first wash. Use a color catcher sheet if concerned about dye transfer.
