Care instructions
Wash at 30°C, low tumble dry heat, hang to dry, do not wring, low heat iron.
Every individual fabric requires its own degree of care, but they are generally very easy to look after. To ensure they always look their best, we generally recommend a cold and delicate wash, if you want to put them in a washing machine cycle. Some are hardier than others, and for naturals, such as 100% silk, we recommend a specialist dry cleaner. Hot washing at anything above 30°c could cause colour fading. Natural cotton options (like all natural cottons) have some degree of shrinkage in the printing process. Please accept 2-3 % shrinkage in the X and Y directions. To compensate, we suggest to allow a margin of shrinking in your design. Do this by adding more bleed area in your design. If you require any additional help with care or design instructions, then do not hesitate to get in touch via our online chat.
If making cushions is your game, then our range of upholstery textiles are made for you. Quite literally. Whatever your decor is like, you are sure to find a fabric to match it. If you are designing cushions for your best room, such as a lounge or the master bedroom, then try our ranges of silk and satin fabrics. With an opulent and smooth finish, they will add elegance and style. For the kid's bedrooms, why not create a soft and cuddly cushion that they can snuggle with at bedtime? Our range of velvets have the cuddle factor and will look stunning printed with your creations.
Enjoy all sorts of cushions with this fabric: bolster, scatter, floor cushions, and more. You can choose the dimensions of your material, so enjoy cushions of all shapes and sizes. Your cushions, your rules.
Our specialist digital printing process is something we are very proud of. It allows us to flawlessly print your designs deep into the fibres of your chosen fabric. This creates a vibrant and permanent print that will not rub off or fade away. Every individual fabric has a slightly different finish and structure. Therefore, you can expect different print finishes. Some of the fabrics, such as the natural cottons, have a beautiful, slightly muted print that adds to the rustic charms of this lively textile. Others, such as silk sensation, deliver a punchy and bold print. The different compositions all have their own unique charms, base tones and yarns, so have fun getting to know each one and seeing which will be best for your cushion project.
Due to the nature of Cotton Linen and Pima Lawn Cotton, there is a chance that occasional very small white dots, where pieces of cotton fluff are removed, revealing unprinted white base material. Please note that this is normal and cannot be avoided but won't affect the strong colours and detailed nature of your print.
Depending on how you use to use your cushion fabric, you can choose from 3 different edge finishes. Each is expertly stitched by our team of skilled seamstresses:
You most likely will choose not to have your fabric hemmed, if you are using it to make cushions, however, if you do it is important to bear these measurements in mind:
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally, your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi; this means that no resizing of your file occurs, preventing any interpolation. Our design interface will have a quality marker next to the design that you have uploaded, this will change colour using a traffic light system and display a message. The message will let you know if the resolution is too low or if you have a good quality image.
When you upload your design our system will automatically scale it to fit your chosen fabric dimensions. In the ‘Product Options’ tab, the displayed dimensions under ‘Print Size’ will show the dimensions of the piece of fabric that you are ordering. For image/design dimensions you need to see the ‘Images & Text Tools’ tab. You can see and edit the dimensions of the image under the quality information next to the thumbnail.
We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results. What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
For most of our fabrics, there is no limit on the length of the fabric that you can order. We have a preview design window set up to 10m max to visualise the print, but that's not a print limit. If you'd like to order more, increase the quantity (x2 for 20m or x4 for 40m for example) and then you can order as much as you'd like, with a built-in automatic volume discount too. The maximum print width of each fabric can be found on the individual fabric pages or in our design interface.
Yes, that might help you! Always incorporate any extra space or boarders into your purchased fabric size. We trim squarely around fabric samples and fabric prints, leaving approximately 5mm white space. Cutting neatly on the line has an additional fee.
Crocking, which is fading along the creases, often after washing or heavy use, occurs when you digitally print on natural fabrics - more so when dark or dense colours are used. It can be minimised by using a cool hand wash instead of machine washing as the tumbling of the machine is the main cause of this. To avoid entirely, we would advise using a poly fabric.
Our organic fabrics do not have any coatings that the non-organic fabrics have. This means the ink absorbs into the fibres, reducing the colour strength slightly (by approx. -40%). For super strong colours we recommend a non-organic natural fabric.
Unfortunately not; we like to test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, and if you have access to a heat press you can press your own fabrics easily.
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Just like many fabric printing processes, there is the potential for shrinkage. Depending on the fabric, please expect and allow between 2-8% shrinkage which you need to plan for in your dimensions. This percentage can vary from print run to print run and between fabrics, so we would advise ordering a little more material than you require for your project.
We do not offer to print on both sides of the fabric. A lot of our fabrics are semi-transparent or have some show through and this wouldn't work with double-sided printing. This is not a service that we offer on any of our fabrics.
At the moment no, our labels are all printed on the same satin fabric. We may introduce more in the future, but for now, this is the best choice. The labels are all cut the same way. You can order the fabric of your choice and make the labels yourself, but we do not cut different fabric into label format.
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in London where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfilment. Rather than roll the fabrics, or send them in a tube, we fold them before they are sent out to you. This saves over 150 tubes a week, as well as a lot of space on the delivery van. (For delicate fabrics we ensure to package appropriately).
We work at improving our colour profiles all the time. Though rare it may happen that from one print run to another, and there could be slight colour differences, this is normal and part of the process when we are constantly improving. It is extremely unlikely that there will be a huge difference (like orange instead of red for example). Please bear in mind such colour variations can be intensified from fabric to fabric due to the varying grains and textures of the fabric; natural fabrics tend to have more muted colours than their poly alternatives. This is due to the construction of the materials as well as the print methods that have to be altered slightly for more delicate, natural textiles.
We have a full Cut & Sew service here at Bags of Love, and are able to hem your fabric prints for a small additional charge. We create a small one- or two-fold hem that typically uses 5 to 20mm of material, depending on the thickness of the fabric. So, for example, if you want a finished piece of fabric that measures 100 x 100cm, you will need to order a size of 101.5cm x 101.5cm to allow for the hem (on top of that please also allow for shrinkage of min 2%). The thicker the fabric, the bigger the hem will be. You can choose to have your prints hemmed with either Black or White thread. On our silk and other light woven fabrics, one hemmed edge will be straight (vertically down the roll) and the other will be slightly rippled. The hemming material allowances are as follows and you need to make your print bigger to accommodate the hem:

Please note: As everything we provide is handmade to order, you may find a slight variance in the sizes.
