Hi Elly, upholstery fabrics are prone to shrinking so we prefer not to pre-wash the fabric and then to handwash the cushions later when they need a clean. You might get away with a cool or delicate cycle in the machine, but you could keep your scrap fabric and give that a go in the machine to test it out before putting the cushion covers in. Hope that helps!
Am I right in thinking that I shouldn’t prewash my fabric for cushions? It’s upholstery fabric but doesn’t have any washing instructions? Thanks!
