Why am I tapping away at 4 am? Aside from the toddler needing a toilet stop I am losing sleep over fabric once again.
Yesterday I found the perfect summer denim for my front and back skirt, light weight and dark in colour. George at Gjs confirmed my suspicion that light weight denim is very hard to come by at the moment. I proceeded to buy 15 metres of the stuff as I am about to start doing bigger runs of skirts in the lead up to Christmas.
At home I cut the piece in half so that it would fit into my machine because I always pre-wash fabric and test for coloufastness.
At this point I want to swear.
Horrible bleeding ensued and did not stop.
I washed and washed.
What to do?
So at 4 in the morning Google has come to the rescue. I have found and bought a fixative online. Hope it works.
For sleep as much as fabric…………..Goodnight.
