Troubleshooting

Fabric seems too thin for intended use.

Consider using a double layer or pairing it with a slightly heavier interlining if more structure is needed. It is designed as a lining fabric.

Color appears different from expected.

Screen resolutions can vary. Order a swatch if color matching is critical before purchasing a larger quantity.
