Tips for Sewing and Handling Check Fabric

Pay Attention to Pattern Alignment

Ensure precise pattern alignment by using pattern weights or pins before cutting check fabric. Carefully plan your layout to maintain a clean and seamless checkered pattern in your finished project.

Be Gentle when Cutting and Sewing

Achieve clean edges by using sharp scissors or a rotary cutter when cutting check fabric. Avoid stretching the fabric while sewing or pressing, particularly when handling small checks, to minimize distortion.

Pre-Wash Before Starting the Project

Pre-washing is advisable to account for any potential shrinkage before sewing.

Use Low-Temperature Iron Setting

Set your iron to a lower temperature to preserve the vibrant colors and pattern integrity of check fabric. Press the fabric from the reverse side to maintain the check’s crisp appearance and prevent flattening.

Check Fabric Textile Weaving Process

This fabric can be woven using different fibers. The most preferred fiber is cotton. But you can also find check fabric made from cotton blends and synthetic fibers.
Step 1: Extract the cotton seeds from the plant to produce cotton fibers.
Step 2: Transfer the fibers to the dyeing machine, where the fibers will be colored. Two types of fibers are used at this point– the dyed and the undyed. The undyed cotton fiber is the white color that you’ll see in the finished product.
Step 3: Turn the fibers into yarn through a spinning machine.
Step 4: Place the yarns in a weaving machine. The colored yarn goes in the warp (vertical). And, the white one goes in the weft (horizontal).
Step 5: Finish the fabric by washing it. Cut it to the fabric size you usually see in fabric stores.

The Considerations for Buying Check Fabric

Material
Check fabric can be made from a variety of materials, including cotton, polyester, and blends. Cotton is a popular choice as it is breathable, durable, and easy to care for. Polyester blends are often used for their wrinkle resistance and easy maintenance. Consider the intended use of the fabric and choose a material that suits your needs.

Weave
Check fabric can be woven in different ways, resulting in different patterns and textures. The most common weave is a simple plain weave, but there are also twill and dobby weaves available. Consider the look and feel you want to achieve and choose a weave that suits your preferences.

Color
Check fabric is known for its distinctive check pattern in two colors. However, there are many variations of gingham available, including multicolored checks and solid colors. Consider the color scheme of your project and choose a check fabric that complements it.

Width
Check fabric is available in different widths, typically ranging from 44 to 60 inches. Consider the size of your project and choose a width that will allow you to cut the fabric to the desired dimensions.

8 Factors To Consider When Quality Checking Check Fabric

Fiber composition
Choosing the correct fiber composition for your garment can be the base for reaching the desired quality of your product. The look, feel, and durability of a check fabric all vary depending on its overall composition. For example, silk, linen, and wool all have very different and distinct properties and price ranges. A high quality silk garment will feel different than a high quality linen. Get familiar with the basic look, feel, and properties of different check fabrics. This can be done by examining composition tags on clothing or yards of check fabric, and through a bit of research.

Natural versus synthetic fibers
There are two main categories of fibers: natural and synthetic. Natural fibers are derived from plants, animals, and minerals. Synthetic fibers were created as an alternative to natural fibers, as a means for mass producing clothing more economically. These fibers are made with synthetic materials, and are extracted through a chemical process. While natural fibers tend to be more sustainable, synthetic fibers offer properties such as wicking and breathability performance features. Outweigh the pros and cons of the different fibers, and decide accordingly when buying a garment or check fabric.

Material construction
Quality materials are closely knitted and woven together in vertical and horizontal weaves. Any gaps between yarn can be an indication of a weaker check fabric, while a well-balanced combination of vertical and horizontal weaves is a sign of a high quality check fabric.

Thread count
Thread count is the number of threads per square inch of check fabric. A check fabric’s thread count can be a reflection of its durability and strength. A higher thread count means that check fabric is tighter and offers more durability, while a lower count indicates the opposite. Higher doesn’t mean better in all cases; different materials have different thread counts which are representative of quality.

GSM
GSM stands for grams per square meter, the standard measurement used when calculating check fabric weight. A check fabric’s GSM measures its density. The higher the number, the more dense the check fabric will be. For example, jeans have a much higher GSM than a standard t-shirt. While GSM alone doesn’t indicate check fabric quality, it can help you make the right decision in purchasing a check fabric needed to make your desired product. Read more about check fabric weight in our previous blog post.

Color
Pay attention to the check fabric’s color, making sure that an even tone is evident throughout. No irregular streaks or spots will be evident on a quality check fabric.

Pilling
When check fabric fibers become loose, it’s common for them to begin pilling. Pilling is when loose threads gather into small clumps of fiber. If you notice pilling on a garment or check fabric before purchasing, it’s best to steer clear.

Finish
Quality checking the overall finish of the check fabric is important, especially when it comes to buying a garment. Check to make sure that all of the check fabric is absent of any stretching, tears, odor, and sewing errors. How does the overall finish feel? Is it appealing to you, or a potential customer? Would it be considered comfortable? Ask yourself these questions prior to purchasing.

A: Linen characteristics are easily recognizable because of the fabric's crispy texture and unique appearance. It looks a little sturdy due to its thick fibers but it smoothes and softens with each wear.

Q: What are fabric grades?
