Caring for your Quilted Wall Hanging

  • When your quilt arrives

    Your quilt may have a bit of creasing when it arrives. You can use an iron on a cotton setting to press out the creases.

    Long exposure to UV rays will affect the color of natural dyes over time.  I advise hanging your quilt out of direct sunlight.

    See the How to Hang your Quilt instructions for hanging tips.

  • Caring for your quilted wall hanging

    To keep your quilted wall hanging clean, use a lint roller to periodically remove any dust or lint that collects on your quilt. Do NOT machine wash. This could cause the fabric to shift and distort, resulting in a wall hanging that no longer lays flat.

    If your wall quilt becomes stained, please contact me.

  • Caring for other naturally dyed items

    For naturally dyed items used as blankets, cushions, shawls, or scraves, spot clean or machine wash with cool water on a gentle cycle using mild, pH neutral detergent. (I recommend Seven Generations unscented liquid detergent.) Use a color catcher if you are concerned about the colors bleeding. Hang or lay flat to dry out of direct sunlight. Snuggle often.
