Dalston Mill Fabrics 100% Premium Plain Cotton Fabric, White, 5m

I ordered this item twice, I loved the quality of the first lot of fabric & was so impressed I used it to make a quilt for my daughter but ran out before It was finished so I ordered more but the second fabric just didn't live up to the first orders fabric quality so I had to spend a day out shopping trying to track down some fabric like the first ordered! As a wheelchair user it's not always easy to get out & about on my own which is why I shop for most things online!

Was a bit unsure about what this fabric would be like due to price being so much lower than the Kona cotton I was going to buy instead (twice the price at cheapest supplier, same spec) and am delighted to say it is fantastic quality! Perfect for quilting provided you want a good thick cotton as it isn't flimsy. I have test washed it and the shrinkage was 1.5" over 36" with no distortion at all (unlike a recent purchase from a big name designer range that had to have almost 20% trimmed off it twisted so much) I'm absolutely delighted with it.

The fabric on opening was nice and smooth and seemed to have quite a bit of finishing in it so I cut off a 12 inch strip across the width, washed it by hand, dried, and it developed strong vertical lines as though it had been scruffily folded into one inch vertical folds and pressed. I ironed, the lines came out, and cut up into large 12 inch squares for a project.I transfered my design, coloured with inktense, and then washed flat, by hand in warm water. All the strong vertical creases came back.So, I don't think this is going to be suitable for what I wanted which was to do some freestyle machine embroidery plus inktense pencil work, as once in a quilt it won't be possible to ever iron it flat again, and the squares will be rather distorted.On the other hand it took the iron on transfer well, and the inktense pencil work spread out nicely with water but didn't run when I gave it its flat soak to make sure all the ink was activated (hope it's permanent).Not sure, but I will give a couple of squares a go and if no good for embroidery will use for practice and backing to the quilt squares.

This is really good, quite heavy weight cotton. Ideal for quality sewing tasks. I'm making, for a start, a maxi-length underskirt for a very thin cotton maxi-skirt but this fabric is thick enough for shirts, trousers, table-cloths and probably curtains if you wanted.

Black sheet with clamp on windows worked well helped stopped reflection off come from street light outside went reflection to white wall then reflection to windows shiny like mirror.1st picture on top pic - was badly reflection on window, on bottom pic - with black sheet seen much better stop reflection.I doing record time-lapse on my camera when dusk I quick black sheet clamp windows because due street light turn on cause reflection to window from white wall.

So pleased I purchased this, I quilt and this is beautiful to work with. I will definitely purchase again.

This is very good value for money. I bought it to do test patterns with but it is so nice I am using it for better purposes.

I used the material for curtains below a built-in long desktop/worktop. The material hangs very nicely and is better quality than I would have expected, until reading other reviews before purchase. I can echo those comments, it's excellent.

La compré para hacer mascarillas. La lavé antes con sal. Haciéndo las mascarillas se me quedaron las manos azules. Llevo dos lavados más pq sigue destiñendo...

Estupenda! La quería para el disfraz de mi hijo y me ha ido perfecta. He podido incluso pegar plumas con pistola de silicona y ha aguantado perfectamente.

Tela de algodón 100% un poco rígida, pero supongo que con los lavados perderá el apresto. Envío rápido

No me ha gustado nada, pero por lo menos me han devuelto el dinero.

Me ha gustado mucho, mejor de lo que esperaba y super rapido

Mascarillas...

Genial

parfait pour la réalisation de housse de couette personnalisé. couleur fiable sur le descriptif, mètres de tissus pliers et embalée dans un packaging comme sur la première photo de l'annonce. livré rapidement!!!

volvería a comprarla

Buena calidad. Tela no demasiado fina. Solo una pega, destiñe un montón por lo menos en la primera lavada.

Arrivato nei tempi previsti, buon imballo. Tessuto di buona fattura. Non è trasparente. Ho lavato subito e ha perso pochissimo colore. Non vedo l'ora di usarlo

Tiene una textura como almidonada. Es buen algodón para hacer pequeñas cosas. Yo lo uso para muñecos.
