@stitchdown-shell oh hello, what’s going on here then… nice
Looking at the bartacks - are you a sewer, is your name a clue? Love that your repurposing a repurposed piece of Reloved fabric ️

Lynne

@ROman they look great! Loving your bar

@Lynne hahaha Thanks, Lynne. I am definitely not a sewer. I can barely replace my buttons when they fall off. I did however zoom into the photos of the keychains that you made to see how you did the stitching.

My user name, stitchdown, comes from a boot construction term where the upper is flanged out, and stitched through the midsole. Nerd boot talk.

Also just re-ordered the proper single wristlet size.

Forgot to post this from my kitchen.

I think the overdying is done in Japan but I wonder if there was a way to overdye some of this stuff? I love my OD iron heart lol

You need black fugitive dye. You can pick it up at a craft store. It won’t be the same as what you get from IH unless you have an industrial washing machine and industrial dyeing process, but in principal you just dye it black in a bucket of water mixed with dye. Repeat a few times for better saturation.

Lynne

@CosmoSix5 I do have a pair of od jeans for recycling. We have just sold the two back pockets as Relove coasters, but I have the rest to create products from. So, you will see authentic od products here soon.
With regards to dyeing in general, I will keep the denims as I receive them in their original state. I may dye some of the shirt fabric I have for lining as they have bleach splats for instance, but not the denim

Lynne

@Danimal506 it looks right at home! Thanks for posting, it’s so rewarding to see these products in use

Lynne

@sabergirl ️out of stock atm, but as soon as I get more jeans, I’ll post here.

Shout out for more jeans to relove please!

What happens to all the 2nd and 3rd grade 25oz and 21oz denim that you guys buy from the mill anyway? Could those rolls be shipped to UK for @Lynne to find out usable parts?

Giles

Our 2nd and 3rd grade denim typically just has neps and/or stuttered weave in certain sections of the roll, those can be cut around for small items like bags and calendars....So is used in Japan.

Karol

@Giles thanks for explaining, great that everything is being used. ️
