Linen and Aida Sizing Information:
Because the dyeing process involves heat and water, fabric shrinking does occur. The following cuts are the industry standard sizing prior to dyeing. I find most hand-dyed linens shrink about an inch or two either way. The Aida does not tend to shrink much at all. Linen and Aida have different Fat Half and Fat Quarter sizes due to their different bolt sizes.
Linen Sizes:
Yard = 36” x 55”
FH = Fat Half = 36” x 27x5”
FQ = Fat Quarter = 27.5” x 18”
Aida Sizes:
FH = Fat Half = 20” x 36”
FQ = Fat Quarter = 18” x 20”
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND:
Sue’s beautiful fabric is hand-dyed in individual batches with lots of care and creativity, which makes it impossible to have two pieces look exactly alike. But you already probably know that, and that is why you are looking to purchased hand-dyed fabric in the first place!
I do my best to photograph the yarn in natural light to best show off the colors, but all screens display color differently. If you ever want to video chat “live” to see the fabrics even better, contact me at rachel@treehousefiberarts.com to set up a Facetime or zoom conference call.
