FAQ
Why use this premium primary fabric rather than a standard fabric?
Premium primary fabric is more durable and better suited to tufting techniques due to its polyester composition. Using standard fabric, you risk your thread not inserting properly through the fabric or, worse, ending up tearing your fabric.
How do I install premium monk cloth on my tufting frame?
To install the fabric on your frame, start by unrolling the fabric and placing it on the frame. Make sure it is taut and evenly distributed over the entire surface of the frame before attaching it. It is imperative that your canvas is taut like a drum. We recommend that you follow our video tutorial to install your canvas in the best conditions.
Are Marker Lines Really Useful?
Yes, the marking lines every 50 cm are extremely useful. They not only help to align the patterns, but they also make it easier to cut the fabric accurately.
Can this fabric be used for projects other than tufting?
Although this fabric is specifically designed for tufting, its strength and texture also make it suitable for some forms of embroidery or punch needle.
How to choose between white and gray colors?
The choice of color depends on your personal preferences and the design of your project. There is no difference in the quality of the fabric, apart from the color. However, if you want to make a white or beige rug, we recommend choosing the gray fabric because it might be difficult to tuft tone on tone.
