This off white 100% cotton fabric is printed with the traditional Waves sashiko design. The printed markings will wash away completely after you are finished the stitching.
Ordering the amount you want: Order in 1/2 (19.5") meter increments (Put 1 in the order box to order 1/2 meter, 2 units will be 1 meter, 3 units will be 1 1/2" meters and so on) Your order will be sent to you in one uncut length.
This fabric is medium light cotton with a slightly textured surface reminiscent of vintage cotton fabrics, suitable to use for quilting, home decor, or clothing.
The print washes out cleanly so you do not have to stitch the entire fabric. This is useful if you want to pre-plan stitched areas in the project you will make from this fabric after the stitching is finished.
NOTE: Please don't get the fabric damp before you have finished stitching, and do not iron it before washing either, heat may make the markings permanent)
Suggested sashiko thread and needles: All of the sashiko needles and threads on this site are suitable for this fabric. Choose thin threads for a more subtle stitching, thicker threads for more impact. Choose the sashiko needles with larger eyes if you are using thicker threads (Olympus Brand 2 needle or 4 needle packs are always reliable)
