My turn to look for fabric

Trish Brown · 2013-05-31T10:31:28+00:00

I've been trying for a while now to find some orange and black striped stretch fabric. I'd prefer smaller stripes (say, 1/2" or smaller), but at this point I'd be happy with anything! I only want a yard or so - hoping to make onesies for two new babies in the family - but d'you think anyone out there has anything remotely suitable for sale? Please let me know if you're aware of a source! Of course, the vendor would need to be willing to ship to Australia. (The babies' Daddies play for the same footy team: Wallsend Maryland Tigers. Hence the need for black and orange stripes.) -- Trish Brown {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia

Have you considered buying a 1/2 yard of each color, cutting it into strips, sewing the strips together - i.e. making it yourself? :-)

Yes, but I don't think this would look great in knit fabric. I want to make stretch onesies for a newborn and a 2-month-old.

I got totally confused, you mean this, right?

US vest = UK waistcoat US pants = UK trousers

I read it wrong :-)

Maybe applique the stripes of one colour (color) on top of the other?
