I didn't notice that streak before prewashing so it could be from my fabric manipulation. Anyway, I didn't necessarily think the store sold me a faulty product especially since that didn't happen with the second yardage when I washed it.Carolyn (Diary of a Sewing Fanatic)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02204627216540667980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-18745133887537285632020-02-06T13:07:48.292-05:002020-02-06T13:07:48.292-05:00I love this shirt on you!

But to buy them at the store like that- it shows they aren't taking care of their fabrics.
