Sometimes when one has used unwashed fabric, it shrinks when it is pressed.

So the fabrics may have been cut accurately, and sewn accurately, but then when it was pressed (with steam), the fabric might shrink.

I bought cut strips that were 2-1/2 inches (Hoffman or Kaufman) - and after they were washed, they were only 2-3/8 inches wide.
