Is there an online source for colored elastic in the 1 to 1 1/4 inch wide range? I've done a search but have had no luck; it could have been my search method. Anyone have a site to share??

I have now checked out the sources I posted and I see that only the Sew Sassy has a fairly wide selection of elastic in different colors.

The others are not much use, although I did find quite a few interesting things at

Sorry for not checking out the sources before my previous post,

No, I figured it would behave like polyester and not accept dye.

For small applications I have used Sharpie markers to color elastic. They also work very well to color snaps, zipper teeth & pulls, and other metal items.
