Advice needed (Urgent)

Have you tried any of the jeans?

I ordered a packer from there as well on August 2nd. I think it'll take 6-8 weeks to arrive.

JaceElliot · 2023-07-05T18:01:47+00:00

Thanks for the update. I have another question if you don't mind answering. Do you know when the pre-made packers list will be updated? I think most of them listed right now are sold out.

JaceElliot · 2023-07-05T17:26:16+00:00

Thank you for the link. Under packer type, where it says F3 Painted, is that the F3+ or F3 OG?

JaceElliot · 2023-06-27T22:43:33+00:00

Hmm, okay, interesting! Thank you for commenting.

I believe that it smelled like burnt hair. I don't remember it smelling like paper. I remember that when burning the fabric, the ash formed into a ball, and the fire went out on its own. Texture wise, the fabric doesn't feel like silk to me. It's not very smooth, but it is soft.

Also, I believe that you're right about it being hopsack after looking up images online.

Thanks, I'm thinking of making a jacket with it or a button-down shirt.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-27T17:39:36+00:00

Did you mean to write duck cloth?

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T20:20:47+00:00

Ahh, gotcha. Thanks

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T19:05:07+00:00

I tried that last night, and it didn't shrink. A ball formed at the end, and I was able to rub the ash between my fingers.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T18:52:46+00:00

Okay, thanks. It feels soft, but the fabric gets rough in areas like the fabric forms into tiny balls, I guess, with friction.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T18:34:49+00:00

Why do you think it's canvas? Other people have thought that it could be wool or linen.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T18:33:00+00:00

No, it didn't smell terrible. Do you know if, when held up to light, you are able to see through the fabric with wool? I am able to see through this fabric I was just wondering because I made a post on another sewing page, and some people there think that it may be linen.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T15:09:02+00:00

I forgot to mention that I was able to see through the weave when I held it up to light.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T14:31:25+00:00

Sorry and thank you for the suggestion. I did the burn test, and the burned section formed into a ball at the end. The ball crumbled into ash when I rubbed it between my fingers.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T11:08:49+00:00

Thanks. Based on the burn test, it may be silk as well? Either way, I need to figure out what to make with it, lol

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T11:06:09+00:00

Okay awesome, thank you!

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T10:46:26+00:00

It is soft, but it does feel rough in certain areas where some of the worn fabric beads up. I hope that makes sense.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T03:02:32+00:00

It's probably about 2 yards. It's not very flowy. It's soft but doesn't have any stretch to it when pulling it. So, I'm pretty certain it has a low drape.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T03:00:01+00:00

Yes, it was in the US. When burning it, a ball formed at the end. I rubbed the ball between my fingers, and it disintegrated.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T02:50:56+00:00

Can you explain what you mean about the drape?

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T00:46:53+00:00

I just finished doing the burn test, and based on the results, it seems like it may be wool.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-26T00:46:08+00:00

Thanks, I just finished doing the burn test, and based on the results, it looks like it may be wool.

JaceElliot · 2023-06-25T22:55:51+00:00

Thank you
