The choice of a tissue For any project depends on a series of variables that dictate us the requirements we make at the time of choice, because, of course, the requirements for a carnival fact are quite different from the requirements for a sofa.
In this way, we created a list of 9 aspects you should consider when you choose a fabric:
- Quality: Make sure the fabric you are choosing is of good quality and has a good resistance. This will ensure that your clothes or decoration item last longer and keep your appearance over time.
-
Composition: Some fabrics are made of natural materials such as cotton or linen, in turn others are made of synthetic materials such as polyester or acrylic. Choose the composition that best suits your needs.
-
Weight/ Gramagem: This is a very discounted element, but it should not be forgotten that some fabrics are lighter than others, which may be important for making certain pieces of clothing or decoration items. Choose a fabric that has the right weight for the project you have in mind.
-
Texture: The texture of a fabric can affect both the appearance, the feeling of a piece of clothing or decoration item. Choose a fabric with a texture that pleases you and suitable for your project.
-
Elasticity: There are different “levels” of elasticity that can be important at the time of choice a fabric. For example if you will try to make sports clothes then you need a fabric with a high level of elasticity, in turn you will line a sofa you don't need a fabric with such elasticity.
-
Price: Choose an accessible fabric that fits your budget based on the type of project you will carry out.
-
Maintenance: Choose a fabric depending on the effort that is available to make it maintenance, because the maintenance of a sequin fabric is quite different from a fabric like napa, which is a sturdy fabric, easy to clean and sanitize. Either way it is always important to check the wash and care instructions to be taken with the fabric before you buy it, as some fabrics are delicate and need special care.
-
Sustainability: There are fabrics that are more sustainable than others. Here the values and concerns of each have a particular impact. Fabrics such as organic cotton or tissues made of recycled materials have less environmental impact than synthetic napa, but they may not be indicated for certain types of use.
- Use: This is undoubtedly one of the most important aspects. Make sure the fabric is suitable for the purpose of your project. For example, if you are making a curtain, choose a fabric that is sunlight resistant. If you are looking for fabrics for purpose
