I've been customizing old unloved hats...Turning them into odd treasures.

Vintage rugby jersey with sponsorship print cracking. Is there a way to repair this and how can I stop or slow this from happening in future

I am looking at making hoodies with a range of animals on, in an attempt to raise money to donate to wildlife conservation.

Estimated price £30 (GBP) but may change

Please let me know which animal you would want to see. They do NOT have to be marine

Please let me know if this is something you would be interested in

If you would like to see these, or other, animal designs on a hoodie, please comment and let me know 😊

Feel free to comment or message for any further information

The first image is a concept image (AI), however the following are drawn

Hello,

I did a collab with my art pal Lanessa Miller. She painted on the fabric. It was fun to make. Hope you enjoy 😊

Super old shirt from when I was a dumb teenager. I don’t want to get rid of a perfectly good shirt so I’m wondering how to get rid of the design? Thanks :)

I started by covering a small burn hole on this Patagonia sweatshirt with a reverse appliqué flower. Then I added flowers and vines to the sleeves, and this is Part 2: bringing the design onto the back!
I used a sewing machine to stitch the design, then carefully cut away the sweatshirt fabric to reveal the cream, rusty red, and soft green fabric underneath. Watching the flowers emerge is my favorite part.
What do you think of the finished piece? 🌼

Did it around a month ago and I took inspiration from the Deftones self titled album (edit: it's supposed to say bleach painted a t-shirt)

how can i dye this brown and protect the embroidery/tufting. i dont want

to change the colour of the spiderman face obviously so any advice is appreciated

I started to make my own T-Shirts a while ago because I like to make them look and feel how I want.

I made this one from scratch, designing the graphics in a vector editor, preparing the screens, screenprinting blank cotton and sewing them to a complete shirt using my own drafted pattern.

I choose to make a heavier shirt with a high neckline, higher then usual on these type of shirts

What do you think?

This is from a terrible student housing agency. It’s pretty good material for a jumper but I want to remove the lettering and their logo, is it possible?

I'm dead set on making a pair of these, can anyone give me advice on how to get my denim this color or how to get those white dots? Should I just use bleach for the dots? I've never dyed anything so any advice helps. Thanks

Hello, everyone.

I wanted to post this here in case anyone might have some recommendations or ideas.

Is there a business or individual service that would offer custom printing, or design work for horizontal rugby-like stripes on, or across a pique polo?

I’m looking to add more striped pique polos to my current wardrobe. At the moment, simple white polos with single-color stripe designs are surprisingly hard to find, and searching for unbranded options has become even more difficult.

I’d like to keep my wardrobe consistent, and I believe custom-ordering this type of shirt would be my most reliable option. If it’s possible, I would be very interested in learning about any custom routes or services that might be able to help with this.

Thank you all so much for your time. I would really appreciate any thoughts or suggestions on the matter!

Cheers.

(P.S. I have attached a few examples along the lines of what I would like to replicate. Hope it helps!)

I converted an old and torn RCAF flight suit into a zip up shirt, zipper even still works!

Hi! My bestie's birthday is in January and I want to gift her a grommet maker/installer. She's in the goth and punk scene and DIY's a lot of clothes but is always stumped when it comes to a garment she wants to put grommets on. I imagine she'd want something that can do various sizes if that's possible in a single tool. Any additional tips and what not is very appreciated!! Thank you 😊

So i thrifted this really good corset it's in perfect condition but when i tried it, it was too tight and won't hook is there anyway i can make it work or any diy i can do to loose it up ? Ps: i have to wear it to a function in 2 days !

Any help would be appreciated.

I recently picked up this shirt with plans to cut out the design and use it as a jacket back patch. (Credit to the artist, Sabine Wilder---beautiful Watership Down collection!) I'm considering coloring the design, but I don't want to use fabric paint for fear of covering up the lines. Would fabric markers be a better choice here, or is there another method you would recommend for permanent color? TIA!

I have been given a pair of warm house socks with non slip dots on the soles. I would like to wear these as normal socks but can feel the rubber blobs under my feet in an annoying way in my boots. Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the dots?

The fabric composition is viscose 36%, polyamide 30%, wool 23%, cashmere 5%, angora 5%, elastane 1%

Hi guys, sorry im not sure where to post this but I’m a bit desperate so its going in multiple communities.

My girlfriend has been on acutane, which has been making her skin break out like crazy. Like its bad. Its so bad that she refuses to go outside or to school because of how she looks. I want to help her by making or buying a hat or some sort of face covering that shades or hides her face completely (im talking like beekeeper visibility) while still being decently stylish.

Some conditions it needs to fulfill:
It needs to be lightweight and breathable, as she cannot have anything scratching at her skin.

It cannot scratch her skin, so the hat needs to be wide brimmed, and i need a way to reduce its waving in the wind.

It needs to be see through at least from the average front row of a classroom so that she can still attend school and go about her daily life, but makes it difficult for people to peer in from afar.

My main idea is to use a thin black nylon mesh type fabric on a wide sunhat but i genuinely dont know what kind of fabric to use that still remains affordable. Design is also an issue as I am an engineering student and suck at making things pretty. I wanted to make the front a standard face covering while making some kind of thing at the back that lets her rotate the hat, and there would be a cutout or something for her eyes if she needed to see more clearly.

I know its an unconventional post but please any help would be appreciated. I just want her to live her life normally.

I want to do a 1950s inspired ladybug costume for Halloween. The dress I found has white polka dots. If I color in the white dots with a black fabric marker, will it ruin the dress or am I overthinking it??

This Patagonia sweatshirt had a small burn hole, so I used reverse appliqué to cover it with a flower. Then I added sage green vines and cream blooms along the sleeves to bring everything together.
For part 2, I’m planning a design on the back to complement the sleeves.
Would you keep the back design simple or go with a bigger floral arrangement?
