CARE
It is recommended to always pre-wash your fabric prior to starting your project. I would also recommend overlocking or zig-zagging the cut ends before your wash your fabric to help cut down on fraying in the machine. Wash separately the first few times in case of colour run. Some suggest using a cup of white vinegar in your first pre-wash (use a cold cycle) to help lock in the dye.
To help avoid getting washed-out lines in your denim, I recommend pre-wetting the fabric and making sure it is completely open (not folded) before putting it into the washing machine. It also helps to not use fabric softener. Wash at 30 degrees
