We offer our Antik Matelasse fabric by the yard so that you may use it to make your own custom pieces. All of our fabrics are double wide; 100" - 130" wide on the roll depending on the fabric. After washing, the width of our Antik Matelasse fabric is 110"; a one yard piece is 110"W x 36"L.

Due to garment-dyeing limitations, the longest contiuous piece of fabric we are able to dye is 3 yards or 108"" long. The longest possible piece of Antik Matelasse fabric is 100"W x 108"L.

You may order as many yards as you need. If you are ordering more than 3 yards of fabric, please specify on your order, how long you would like each piece to be.

Matelasse is an incredible weaving technique invented by the French, using thick filling yarn to mimic an antique hand quilt. We worked with one of the finest Italian weavers in Northern Italy to create our newest Antik Matelasse. The greige or raw loomstate fabric comes to life and softens perfectly with our special garment washing technique. Made using both Cotton and Linen yarns, the different fibers reaction to the garment dye bath results in a beautifully subtle color variegation throughout the pattern.

Antik will get softer with each washing and is the epitome of easy care as pattern looks wonderful whether flat or wrinkled.

Wash

Wash should be separated into light & dark colors. Do not overload machine as this will damage long cotton fibers. We recommend a lukewarm wash cycle with a gentle detergent & a cool rinse.

Avoid using products that contain whitening agents such as chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids and benzoyl peroxide on garment-dyed items. The reactive dyes used for garment-dyeing are not resistant to these whitening agents.

The largest challenge with garment-dyeing is the truth that it is an art, and not a science. We must allow for a shade variation of +/- 10% from dye-lot to dye-lot.
