Can you wash felt fabric without it shrinking or bleeding?
I want to put felt appliques onto a few of my shirts, but I know that felt can bleed or shrink. Is there a type of felt/a way to sew on felt that won’t make it do that?
I would pre-wash the felt before using it. This way you can test if they bleed or not. Also, many fabric shrink a little, not just felt. Therefore, it is advice to pre-wash the fabric before working on it.
When you wash the felt, put it in a laundry bag of appropriate size, before putting into the washing machine. Don’t put it in the dryer. And these rules are for both before working on and after working on the felt.
For felt on shirts already, turn the shirt inside out, before putting in the laundry bag.
