Print Guide & Fabric Care Instructions

Fabric & Print Guide

Sanquilly makes artwear you can live in. Pieces use cotton, polyester, or blends (some with 5–10% spandex for stretch). Each product page lists exact content so you can choose what fits your preferences and values.

Materials

  • Cotton: natural, breathable, slightly matte color; softens with wear.
  • Polyester: smooth hand, crisp/vivid color; dries fast; used for most all-over prints.
  • Poly/Spandex blends: stretch, recovery, and comfort for body-skimming fits.
  • DTG (Direct-to-Garment) on cotton: detailed color with a soft feel after the first wash. Note: a faint pre-treat box may appear before the first wash—normal.
  • Cut-and-Sew Sublimation (All-Over Print) on polyester: artwork is dyed into the fabric for edge-to-edge, vibrant color. Seam note: small alignment variance at seams/plackets is normal.
  • No DTF (Direct-to-Film): not used due to feel and durability preferences.

Care

Cotton / DTG

  • Wash cold, inside-out, gentle cycle.
  • Tumble low or hang dry.
  • Avoid bleach and ironing directly on the print.

Polyester / AOP & Poly/Spandex

  • Wash cold with similar colors.
  • Hang dry or tumble low; avoid high heat to protect color and elasticity.
  • Avoid fabric softener (can affect wicking and print).

Sustainability notes

All polyester fabrics shed microfibers over time. To reduce this:

  • Use a Guppyfriend (or similar) wash bag and a gentle cycle.
  • Wash cold and line dry when possible—better for garments and the planet.
