HI folks,
I'm sure I've seen a post about this before but couldn't find it in a search! I have come across a few fabrics recently where the fabric information (eg designer, colour registration marks etc) is printed on the selvidge very close to the pattern, making it impossible to cut off as it would leave a seam allowance of only a few millimetres. If you leave the selvidge on, then the printing can show through the face fabric and if you cut it off, you would lose a significant portion of the fabric width, or have a teeny seam allowance.
What do you do in this case?
Thanks
Sue
