Care & washing
Allow up to 10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.
Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.

Sorry for the delay in response.
Really impressed with your service and the material you provided. Super fast service too.
I’m currently on a European road trip with my Fiat Panda, ‘Po Po’. We’ve been from Scotland, through Ireland, arriving on mainland Europe via ferry to Bilbao. Then went through the south of France, the north of Italy, Corsica, and are currently in Andorra, with more of France, Spain and England to follow. To give more room for luggage, with never more than one passenger joining me, I took the backs of the rear seats out of the car, leaving the rear bench. I covered the rear seat with a protector. With the help of a local seamstress, she doubled up the material you provided. I then used an eyelet punch to make holes in the material and with suction cups on the windows attach the cover so that effectively, I have a two seater estate. The windows in the car are tinted, so along with the cover, anyone looking in can’t see cases etc lying around when we’re away from the car. It’s worked really well and I’ve only needed a few running repairs to reinforce eyelets with some sewing- my fault when I’ve forgotten about the cover and opened the door too firmly. The material is so good that I’ve actually used it as a picnic rug as well a couple of times. Happy to send you a video if you wish.
Many thanks again, Alan
