Richlin Fabrics Textiles 1 in. Stripe Black/White By The Yard

Great for art making

This fabric is perfect for the project that I’m doing

First thing I did when I received the fabric was toss it into the washing machine with four cups of bleach and ran it on a full cycle of hot. Did not touch the black. I want to know what kind of dye they use, because the four cups of bleach didn't even make a dent in it, stripes still as black as could be. The costume was made with the wrong side of the fabric facing out. If you make a garment with it and spill something on it, don't worry, just toss it in with a load of whites and plenty of bleach, and the fabric did iron very well during construction. Won't be ironing the costume, who would believe a neat and clean escaped prisoner?

Like most of the reviews I read, it is a bit thin.. and while working with it, even after washing I did notice a small amount of dye transfer on my hands. That being said it is suuuper easy to work with, it was a really good price for me since I had to buy twelve yards of it, and my project turned out really nicely! I love my new dress/Halloween costume!

For the price the quality isn't terrible. The fabric is very thin and a little translucent against contrasting colors like the white of the mailer it came in and the deep red on my chair. Overall the value is fine for the price but I will need to back this with something to make it useable. Shipping was fast and my two yards came in as one continuous piece which was fantastic.
