So, I went to the grocery store and when I came home I found this bleach spot on my pants. It had to have happened in the grocery store bathroom when I washed my hands after touching lots of gross sausage tubes. Is there any way to fix this, like perhaps dying just that little spot? They are 99% cotton 1% elastane. I love these pants.

my partners birthday is coming up and I have been working on some custom designs to put onto a hoodie and pair of pants but I've never done this type of DIY before and I don't know what with actually last through washing machine cycles and heavy use wear. I was thinking of using bleach to paint on my designs but I've seen them come out more orange stained than white (which is the end result I am trying to achieve). If you have any advice or suggestions please help me out I would really appreciate it. or even if you just think bleach is the way to go please let me know.

I have already bought the pants (I included a photo of them and their label/tags)

I haven't purchased the hoodie yet but think plain black as well (if you have any specifics I should consider before purchasing please let me know)

(sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes I am writing this in a bit of a rush)

Hi,

I have this yellow fleece vest and want to dye it. The vest is white Teddy inside and so the edges of the sleeves, hip and collar.

The idea is to add brown (deep chocolate or maroon).

The ends of the sleeves, hip and collar will be brown. Furthermore, I want to make ombre sleeves where the ends are the darkest brown and then towards the shoulders lighter and lighter until the original color of yellow. Furthermore, I want to make the zipper brown as well.

I have only recently started being creative, so please let me know what you guys think.

What is the best way to go about this?

What paint can I best use? What is the best way to make the zipper brown? Good ways for Ombre sleeves are also welcome!

Love to hear from you creatives and artists!!! :)

I bought this beautiful coat from & other stories two days ago. It’s 80% recycled wool and I find it so warm, chic and unique. The only issue is that with two wears I have already picked off pilling where my bag has sat. I know wool will pill especially if it’s felt but I find this very quick! It’s only been used back and forth from my lectures so maybe about 4 hours maximum of wear because I take it off indoors. I’m worried that it will make my coat thinner and less warm, I’m also worried about maybe a hole appearing one day down the line? My bag is fairly heavy as I have to carry a laptop but it its a smooth and what should be a non abrasive material! Is this a sign to return the coat? Is there also anything I could put on it to prevent future pilling?

My husband’s company buys fabric seconds from textile companies that they can’t use or don’t use because it’s not first quality. This is usually large quantities at low cost. I’m trying to find more leads and just feel like I’ve hit a dead end. Any connections or leads on companies that may have what we need?

Hi Does anyone know technical and repair information about the savitec-Penta3 Accumulator?

This may be a stupid question, but I'm going to ask it anyway. In the world of silk alternatives, why do fabrics made from cellulose fibers (viscose, lyocell, etc.) always have so much drape? Where are the stiffer woven fabrics like dupioni and taffeta and organza? I'm trying to move away from polyester in my apparel sewing but I don't always have the budget for real silk, and there doesn't seem to be anything in between out there that has the hand AND sheen that I'm after. I have used cotton sateen before, but it doesn't work for everything.

Is it an issue of there just not being enough demand? Or do the properties of cellulose fiber make it unsuitable for more stiff woven fabrics? I tried Google, but it wasn't very helpful and only wanted to show me polyester.

Can anyone source this in black and ivory/cream?

I want to restore a vintage leather jacket which had an elastic/webbing strap but I can't seem to find anything that matches the original.

The image attached is the closest I've gotten in my search, except the borders are navy not black. Please may someone help me source something similar but with a black edge and thick ivory centre?

Hi! I'm starting to study fashion, and I need a compendium of fibres to put in a journal. Is there a site with low prices and a large selection of materials, in wich I can buy everything I need?

Hi, does anyone know here why my jeans has a strip of reflective fabric on the seam sewing on inside?

Any ideas to this well made wool blanket? The detail work on the eyes is impressive and they are "raised" and the blanket itself is well-made and appropriately full/queen size in measurements.

It was very popular in the 1940s/50s. I want to know the name for it. It feels wrong to keep calling it squiggles

Hi all, I am unfamiliar with rextiles. I used some fabric glue to attach some patches to a denim jacket but want to reposition one of them. The glue feels very strong. Any suggestions? TIA.

I’m looking to make 100% natural/ organic athletic shorts that maintain the properties of merino wool but are more durable without using something like nylon to blend. Will hemp or linen help in this regard? Thank you for any information!

Reddit I need help??

Hello, I've been looking all over for a blanket that does not shed. For example, I want to buy a wool blanket to replace my polyester blanket but I don't want it to shed like crazy cause I know that wool can shed like crazy. I was thinking alpaca wool blankets but I'm afraid it might shed like crazy. I appreciate any help I get. Thanks.
