Frequently asked questions
What can I sew with this gabardine?
Fabric Depot recommends it for jackets, dresses, suits and slacks. It is light-to-medium weight.
Does it stretch?
Yes: slight horizontal stretch. Use a stretch or ballpoint needle and a stretch stitch or serger so seams move with the fabric.
Is it see-through?
No, it is opaque.
How do I care for it? Should I pre-wash?
Care: Machine Washable. Pre-wash it the way you plan to launder the finished piece; natural fibers can shrink in the first wash.
What is gabardine used for?
A firm, tightly woven twill that resists wrinkles; a classic for trousers, skirts, suits and coats.
How is it sold and where does it ship from?
It is sold by the yard and ships directly from our partner Fabric Depot.
