How to Choose the Right Material for Your Project?
For bed linen, 100% cotton (poplin or ranforce) is the best choice due to its breathability and durability. For a luxurious look, choose satin or sateen cotton.
If you want to make decorative pillows or curtains, heavier materials like velvet or upholstery fabrics are ideal, offering shape and elegance. For tablecloths, look for Teflon-coated (waterproof) materials that are easy to clean.

| Cotton / Ranforce | Natural, breathable, matte | Bed linens, kids' clothes. |
| Satin | Shiny, smooth, cool | Luxury linens, dresses, pajamas. |
| Velvet / Plush | Soft, thick, textured | Curtains, pillows, upholstery. |
Frequently Asked Questions about Fabrics

Do materials shrink after the first wash?
Natural fabrics (cotton, linen) tend to shrink by about 3-5% after the first wash. It is recommended to wash the material before cutting or to allow for a margin of error in measurements.
