When your item arrives
Your quilted item may be a little creased when it arrives, especially if it has travelled a long distance.
Lightly pressing your item with an iron on a cotton setting will help to smooth out creases.
For wall display, smaller quilts include a 12mm diameter pine dowel which enables you to hang it from a hook, screw, or nail. For large quilts a pine dowel will need to be purchased; follow these simple steps to display your quilt.
Quilts for wall display & totes
Do not machine wash these items.
Use a lint roller to remove dust.
Spot clean with warm water and a mild detergent if needed.
Wall quilts and totes can be ironed smooth on a cotton setting.
Quilts as blankets, runners, & cushions
Spot clean or machine wash on a cool gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Please note that machine washing your quilt or cushion may result in it becoming more crinkled with a less smooth appearance. Alternatively you can spot clean.
Use a colour catcher to avoid colour run.
Tumble drying is not recommended, hang or lie flat to dry.
Iron smooth on a cotton setting.
