Care & washing

Allow 2-10% 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.

Lovely quality, but I wish I’d zoomed in on photo as the velvet has lines through it (every 1cm) not noticeable in photo and definitely not mentioned in description
