Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure best results, pre-wash your fabric at 40 degrees to account for any initial shrinkage common with natural cottons. When cutting, lay the fabric on a flat surface to prevent the layers from shifting. Use a sharp, new sewing needle (size 70/10 or 80/12) to avoid snags. For garment finishing, the edges can fray easily, so using a serger or a French seam technique is highly recommended to protect the integrity of the seams over time. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the color.
