Christmas is right around the corner. It is officially that time of the year to dress up for your festivities, decorate your house accordingly, and create memories with your family and friends! With festivities and celebrations approaching, it is normal to expect many guests, which means extensive cooking. While it’s great to spend time with loved ones, the extra company can lead to a messy home. Between dishes piling up in the kitchen and toys strewn across the living room, it can be tough to keep your house neat and tidy this holiday season. However, with a little bit of organisation and planning, you can avoid the holiday mess and enjoy time with your loved ones in a festively decorated home.

When you’ve found ideas for using Christmas fabric, it can be confusing to decide which fabric is most suitable for your project. It is also crucial that you select the right Christmas fabric according to what you are stitching. Christmas fabric panels in Australia are easy to find, but ensuring that you select a print that best aligns with your decor is important in creating an aesthetically welcoming home.. Our goal is not only to supply vibrant prints but to ensure that our materials are suitable for your project needs. Outlined below are suggestions that can help you find the right fabric Christmas decorations for your home.
FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN MAKING THE FABRIC SELECTION:
QUALITY
Our selections offer materials, in cotton and linen fabric.
The first thing you need to do is feel the fabric against your skin. What feels right, is probably the best fabric for you. Make sure that the cloth or fabric does not have any blemishes or imperfections, otherwise, this can compromise the outcome of the final look of your stitching project.
FABRIC TYPE
The type of fabric you use for stitching holds a lot of importance because of the number of different blends available in the market. A natural fabric will produce the best results and we would recommend the use of such fabrics.
SHRINKAGE
Everyone hates material that shrinks after a few washes. This is one thing we can be lenient with since we are using these materials for table runners, cutlery holders or more. Buying 10% more of the cloth you require can allow for shrinkage, for the room for your stitching mistakes, as well as ensure that dimensions align with the furniture in your home.
COLOUR
Many colours can evoke themes and feelings of Christmas; Green, red, and white are the first colours that you will think of. The original blend of gold and silver also goes a long way. Choose your colours according to other decorations and how well they complement each other.
PATTERNS
At Avalon Fabrics, you can find an array of patterns from which to choose. The imagery found on our prints includes reindeer, wreaths, snowflakes, Santa, and many more Christmas icons.
