Join me, Susan from Measure Twice Cut Once, as I take you through how I pre wash my fabric before sewing.
Almost all fabrics shrink, be it a little or a lot it can make a difference to your final garment size. One way to combat this is to pre wash your fabric. You can run it on a gentle cycle or hand wash it out. I hand wash because as you can see in the videos I only have access to large industrial style washing machines which are not suitable for pre washing.
Some fabrics also contain sizing, chemicals or other finishing treatments which aren’t always the best so a pre wash helps remove some of those as well.
If you have any questions please add them down below.
