  4. Stitch length: 2.5-3
  5. Thread: heavy duty threads preferred but not essential
  6. Marker: hera marker, chopstick, a blunt fabric pen, or simply crease the canvas to mark
  7. Use wonder clips instead of pins to prevent leaving holes on the canvas
  8. Interfacing: not required
  9. Ironing: don’t! Finger press is enough. Use a hairdryer to get rid of creases if desired
  10. If pairing with leather, test with a scrap first to make sure leather doesn’t absorb the small amount of oil from waxed canvas and stain.

  1. Use it! The fabric will soften and develop a unique patina over time.
  2. Spot clean or hand wash in cold water. Use mild soap if required.
  3. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or dry clean.
  4. Never use bleach, softener, solvent or stain remover.
  5. No ironing required. Use a hairdryer to get rid of creases if desired.
  6. Avoid direct heat contact, ie warm or hot water wash, direct summer sun and leaving in hot car for long.
  7. Rewax after a few years of good use if desired.
