Minerva: Choosing Dressmaking Fabric and Sewing Supplies
Start with the exact offering
Minerva is a dressmaking retailer at minerva.com, offering fabrics, sewing patterns, haberdashery and supplies. Start with the project pattern and its fabric requirements.
Compare the details
Compare fibre content, width, weight, stretch, drape, opacity, direction, washing and price unit. Calculate required length using the actual width and account for pattern matching, shrinkage and directional prints.
Use and safety
Order a sample when colour, feel or drape is important. Pre-treat fabric as directed, use suitable needles and thread, and note that cut fabric usually has restricted returns.
Before ordering
Confirm fabric or pattern, colourway, width, length or quantity, notions, care, dispatch and cut-goods terms.
