DMC soft cotton is a matt tapestry thread. Combed and singed by flame to remove fluff. 5 inseparable cotton strands.
Use
It is ideal for wall tapestries, and especially suited to decorative tapestry such as chairs etc.
For cushion covers which undergo more wear and tear, it is better to use petit-point. This stitch creates a firm weave at the back of the canvas which in turn helps to strengthen the end product. Ideally stretch your canvas on a frame while working to keep its shape and ensure even stitching
Wash and Care
Canvases are difficult to clean, remove dust regularly from the tapestry with a vacuum cleaner. Dry clean only. Ironing on low heat possible. Do not wash. Do not use chlorine. Do not tumble dry
