Questions

What fabric is best for a cot quilt?

A 100% cotton such as Signature Cotton or Cotton Poplin. Both are soft, breathable and wash well.

Can I use these prints for baby clothes?

Yes. Cotton Lawn is light and soft against the skin, and Cotton Poplin holds a neat shape for little dresses and rompers.

Should I pre-wash fabric for a nursery?

Yes. Cotton can shrink a little on the first wash, so wash and dry it before you cut.

Can I order a sample first?

Yes. Order a 25 x 25 cm swatch of any design on your chosen base.
