Tips for Sewing with Colorworks Solids
Colorworks Solids are known for their smooth finish and easy handling. Use a sharp universal needle (size 80/12) and fine cotton thread for clean seams. The fabric presses flat with minimal resistance, and its high-quality weave means less distortion during sewing and quilting.
As always, pre-washing is a good practice—especially when combining with other fabrics—to ensure even shrinkage and color retention.
Use lighter shades to create negative space or subtle visual transitions, and rely on darker shades for framing, depth, or dramatic backgrounds.
