If your fabric is a vintage piece I woul...Hi Lisa,<br /><br />If your fabric is a vintage piece I would definitely prewash it on it's own for colour fastness ( particularly reds and pinks!) and if it runs I would rethink the cream band.<br /><br />I find that salt or vinegar in your wash will (sometimes) stop colours running...worth a try.<br /><br />We're glad to hear that our fave top has become your fave too.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18233098640006396526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838580627585927365.post-42518104329434103102009-12-07T08:47:51.394+11:002009-12-07T08:47:51.394+11:00Nice earrings!
I have a question for the Tessuti ...Nice earrings!<br /><br />I have a question for the Tessuti girls that you may be able to help me with. When choosing two different fabrics for a garment, when one fabric is coloured and one is light, how do you ensure that the colour won't run when it is washed?<br /><br />I have some vintage red printed fabric I want to use in a skirt, and I want to use a cream coloured interlock as a waistband (for a post-baby body). But I am worried that the red from the skirt will run into the cream the first time I wash it.<br /><br />What can I do about this?<br /><br />By the way Lisa, thanks for steering me towards the aqua stripe for the world's most comfy top pattern you guys have on the blog. I sewed it up on the weekend and it is officially my comfiest piece of clothing, and the perfect way to hide the post-preg belly!Lisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838580627585927365.post-18590603035806976822009-12-06T12:38:24.795+11:002009-12-06T12:38:24.795+11:00Gorgeous earrings!!!
