Question 1

Is the colour a true, dark navy blue? I've seen comments about it looking different.**

Accepted Answer

The colour is a rich navy blue, but screen calibration and lighting can affect how it appears online. Based on user feedback, most describe it as a classic navy, though a few note it can have a slight vibrancy in bright light. If you need a *very specific, matte dark navy*, checking a physical swatch is always recommended.

Question 2

How thick and heavy is this cotton fabric? Will it work for my project?**

Accepted Answer

This is a medium-to-heavy weight 100% cotton with a plain weave. It's praised for its substantial, non-see-through quality, making it ideal for structured items like tote bags, pillowcases, cushion covers, crafts, and quilt backing. If you're looking for a lightweight, drapey fabric for flowing garments like summer dresses, you might find it too stiff.

Question 3

Should I pre-wash the fabric before sewing with it?**

Accepted Answer

Yes, we recommend pre-washing. Like most 100% cotton fabrics, it may experience minor shrinkage (typically 2-4%). Washing it on a cool setting and tumble drying low or line-drying will help preshrink it and remove any slight stiffness, ensuring your finished project maintains its size and softness after future washes.

Question 4

The listing says 1 Metre x 150 CM (60 Inches). Can you clarify the sizing?**

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You will receive one continuous piece of fabric. The **length** is 1 metre (approx. 39.4 inches). The **width** of the fabric bolt is 150 centimetres, which is approximately 60 inches. This is a standard wide width for dressmaking and bedding fabrics, providing ample material to work with.

Question 5

What if the fabric isn't right for my project? What's your return policy?**

Accepted Answer

We want you to be happy with your purchase. Due to the custom-cut nature of fabric, we can accept returns only if the item is unused, in its original condition, and in its original packaging. Please contact our customer service team within 14 days of receipt to initiate a return.
