Troubleshooting

Broderie detailing appears snagged or pulled

Gently try to untangle the thread with a fine needle. If a thread is broken, it may be difficult to repair without professional assistance. Handle with care during wear and washing.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Try a fabric softener specifically for cotton if needed, or re-wash on a gentle cycle.

Color fading

Wash in cold water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Consider washing with similar colors.
