Frequently asked questions
What can I sew with this suiting?
Fabric Depot recommends it for dresses, slacks and suits. It is 230 gsm.
Does it stretch?
Yes: slight across width and bias for shape retention. 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.
Is it good for tailored garments?
Yes. Suiting is designed to hold pressed creases and tailored shapes for jackets, trousers and skirts.
How is it sold and where does it ship from?
It is sold by the yard and ships directly from our partner Fabric Depot.
