 Questions about applique
Hi there!
I have been browsing this forum for quite some time and have found alot of helpful info. Thank you to all of you for sharing your expertise. I am currently working on a line of shirts. We are using cotton american apparel tees, then we are cutting letters and shapes out of beautiful woven fabric. I did my first sample by appliquing the letters. Although it looks absolutely stunning on the outside, when i tried it on it feels very stiff and scratchy where the letters are.
Does anyone know of any other options for getting the sewn on look i want? My contractor told me that if we solely sew on the letter we might risk the edges fraying and the fabric puckering.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
We are looking to sell these tees to highend boutiques and department stores so I have to have a nice feel to them.
thanks again, I look forward to your responses.
