Frequently Asked Questions

How do I wash metallic fabric?
Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low or line dry. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach to protect the metallic finish.

Can I iron metallic fabric?
Yes. Press on the reverse side with a medium iron, or use a pressing cloth on the front, so the metallic accents don't scorch or smear.

Do I need a special needle for metallic fabric?
No. Metallic quilting cottons sew like regular cotton. A fresh, sharp needle gives the cleanest stitches.

Will the metallic finish wear off?
Metallic prints can soften slightly with heavy washing over time. Gentle care keeps them shining for years, which makes them ideal for wall hangings and holiday décor.
