Hints & Tips for Working with Gingham Fabric

🧵 Cutting & Pattern Matching:

Align the 3mm checks carefully for a seamless look.
Use sharp scissors or a rotary cutter for precise cutting.

🪡 Sewing Recommendations:

Use a universal needle (size 80/12) for smooth stitching.
Adjust your stitch length to prevent fabric distortion when sewing small checks.

🌀 Washing & Care Instructions:

Machine wash at 30°C for colour longevity.
Medium iron setting to maintain a crisp appearance.
Dry cleanable, but avoid bleach to preserve fabric quality.

✂️ Finishing Touches:

Overlock or zigzag stitch raw edges to prevent fraying.
Use light interfacing for structure in collars, cuffs, or accessories.

Available in three lengths

Fat Quarter 50cm x 70cm
Half Metre 50cm x 144cm
Metre 100cm x 144cm

Please note that if more than one piece of fabric is ordered it will come as one continuous piece as it is cut from the roll, however the rolls do have a maximum length therefore larger orders may be sent in multiple pieces.

While every care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of the colours depicted in our images, please be aware that due to monitor resolution, lighting, photo processing software and other factors it is almost impossible to represent colour to 100% accuracy.

Amazing quick service. Had one of my fabrics out of stock and was resolved and sealed for a slightly different one within the day. Fabrics were great and as advertised, have alredy made a make up pouch with one and it’s holding up perfectly.

Gingham

My order arrived very promptly, excellent service, I will be using you exclusively for fabric from now on. I have recently got into gingham in a big way and the fabric I ordered is wonderful quality and very easy to cut and sew. I'm making summer dresses with big patch pockets on so I don't lose my phone!
