I am very impressed with the personalised fabric I received. I am making a cot quilt for my beautiful granddaughters 1st birthday. Her mother lives ladybugs so this is perfect. I could pick the font as well. Being able to pick what font you wanted was a big bonus. Looks great in my eyes

I bought this fabric to make some homewares for a Citroen fanatic.
Hit the spot perfectly.
Quality base fabric and the car graphics are well done. Great printing, colours as I expected.
I did not a border of unprinted fabric around the graphics which didn’t worry me but may affect some.
The graphic does not spread from selvedge to selvedge.
