Take care of your fabric, make it last!
As you probably are a fabric lover like us, you will want to make it last as long as possible.
To help you with this, we have put together some care recommendations on how to look after your new purchase.
We advise to wash any fabric, before sewing it, in the same way as you would wash your creation (including drying methods), as shrinkage may occur. Please allow 10% shrinkage for all fabrics to be on the safe side.
Wash light and bright colors separately, as some colors may run in their first few washes.
If you are in any doubt about care instructions, please always test a sample first to find the most suitable way to wash your chosen fabrics, as we cannot accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
Please note, these care tips are guidelines only and variations will apply to some fabrics.
Bogolan / Indigo:
Bogolan and Indigo are delicate fabrics. You can wash them gently by hand in cold water with a mild detergent. Some color might run which is normal. However, as the dyes are natural and may wash out over time, dry cleaning is preferable. We recommend washing these fabrics only when necessary.
WARNING: The color of this product (Indigo) may transfer to other objects. Avoid making contact with light colored surfaces before the first washes.
Cotton:
Dry cleanable or machine washable. Line or tumble dry. Medium heat to high heat to iron.
Viscose:
Cold wash, delicate cycle. Do not twist or wring. Do not tumble dry. Low heat iron on the reverse side.
Handmade cotton cushion covers:
They can be washed gently by hand in cold water with a mild detergent. Lay flat to air dry.
