FABRIC TYPES

All the digitally printed fabric is approximately 140-150cm wide which is much wider than your usual standard widths that you'll find in the large retail stores.

​

Please note however that there are a number of items in the "in stock fabric" section which are only 112-115cm wide. Each product you click on will have its width listed under the item description.

​

Here is a list of the fabric types we offer, along with their weights, composition and description.

​

  One of the most versatile woven cotton fabrics - can be used for just about anything; pram liners, quilting, baby clothes, dresses, shorts, hats - the list goes on and on!  It has a woven look underside with the top being a fine textured diagonal weave.  If you usually buy "quilting cotton" this is the perfect fabric for you.

​

• Cotton French Terry - 260GSM 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex
  Lightweight, warm and absorbent. It is smooth on the top side and looped on the underside, much like a super soft bath towel.  French terry is perfect for light winter garments such as hoodies or even casual summer shorts​​. 4 way stretch.

​

​

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS

Although not essential, we recommend washing all fabric before using to account for any shrinkage that may occur, this could be up to 10% depending on the type of fabric. Wash the fabric on a cycle that you intend on regularly using when washing the finished piece.  As with regular clothes washing, it is a good idea to wash similar colours together to avoid greying of your whites and lights.

​

There are so many different care methods that's best to follow depending on the type of fabric that you have, therefore we recommend doing a google search if you're not sure.  As a good starting point, we've found a link for you that covers a few of the fabric base options: How to clean every kind of fabric

​

Finishing/overlocking the edges of woven fabrics before you wash will avoid the raw edge threads from fraying.

​

In compliance with the Australian consumer laws, the cost of your order will not be refunded or exchanged if you have a change of mind about your purchase for any reason.

​

We will genuinely try our best to supply orders within the specified time frame, however sometimes there may be circumstances out of our control which could prevent us from doing so.

​

​

QUALITY

Whilst we make every effort to detect quality issues in your fabric before shipping it to you, If you find a fault with it, please contact us to discuss the problem and make arrangements to meet your needs. We may offer replacement fabric or partial / full refund depending on the problem.

​

Digital fabric printing is not a flawless process and some minor problems do occur from time to time. It may be in the form of a printing glitch, stain or small hole. If the flaw is within 10cm of the edge this will not be considered a major flaw and fabric will be supplied to you as normal.  Any stains on the back of the fabric which do not show through to the printed side will also not be considered to be a discountable/refundable flaw.

​

Please check your fabric carefully before cutting and washing it as once this has been done a refund or exchange will not be accepted.
