SHRINK 15% is a 100% polyester fabric that shrinks evenly in size when steam is applied to it. The percentage indicates the approximate amount of shrinkage that occurs after applying steam to the fabric. Also available is SHRINK 30% which gives a more pronounced effect.

SHRINK 15% is very simple to use to create a dimensional effect. Different effects can be created by altering the distance of stitch lines or by varying the direction and density of stitches - the possibilities are endless!

Pack contains one piece of SHRINK 15% polyester fabric approximately 118cm x 100cm (46” x 39”). Instructions are enclosed together with a free pattern to make the bag shown here (there is enough SHRINK to make 4 bags in this design).
