What Are Your Fabric Needs?

Before you go shopping for fabric, it's important to determine what you need the fabric for. This will help you narrow down your options and choose the right fabric for your project. If you are working with a pattern or print, consider how it will look when it is cut and sewn. Make sure that the pattern is aligned correctly and that the print is not too large or too small for your project.

Consider Fabric Type

There are many different types of fabric, each with its own unique properties and characteristics. Consider factors such as the weight, drape, and texture of the fabric to ensure that it will work for your project.

Check the Fabric Content

The fabric content can have a big impact on how the fabric behaves and how it should be cared for. Be sure to check the label to see what materials the fabric is made of.

Is the Price Right?

Fabric can vary widely in price, so be sure to check the price per yard before making a purchase. Keep in mind that higher quality fabrics may be more expensive, but may be worth the investment if they will last longer or look better in your project.
