Colors Colors Colors

1-Marmalade

2-Green Mist

3-Hawaii Blue

In That Order

Stick to Primary Colors

Lighter Colors=Softer
Darker Colors=Stronger

I stitched my first bag.
Solid Red 12 Panel
Prestretched and Prewashed Ultrasuede Light.
It rocks!

Hi all!
What colors do you suggest for the 32th bags production? And which is the best for such red bags?

Jdigges · Post by **Jdigges** » 02 May 2006 07:49

My favorite red is Colonial red Peet. Its softer then Flash red, and not as thick. although flash red is an excellent color. Look on the first page of this thread, you see which colors are best. any of the ones that are in the first column are excellent colors and will work with 32s

just got my 2nd set of swatches from ultrasuede (toray) i got tulip elite, pony, jaguar, asphault, fuschia, and green grape. man, i wish fields ultrasuede was this good. this is tha sheet.

brinard · Post by **brinard** » 02 May 2006 09:26

also, toray provides ultrasuede elite, supposedly stronger, plusher, and less fading. i ordered a few swatches of elite, and ill make a few bags to see how much better or worse it is. ill give details upon creation and tests.

i plan to toe pickup for about a mile (on asphalt)

freeze

pull on and stomp (stretch panels)

if it passes withlittle or no holes or stretching, AND plays very well, ill use it exclusively. but we'll see

You got more free samples from the ultrasuede site? Im still waiting for my first order. Maybe ill request again, as i am getting pretty impacient.

brinard · Post by **brinard** » 03 May 2006 04:48

generaly, yes... The pink fabric that Peng sent me is way stronger then the blue spruce or the black noir (prolly others too... this is all I have to compare though). For the most part you're prolly right, but there are exceptions

Roy · Post by **Roy** » 04 May 2006 18:18

I thought id post this here, if its too off topic or takes to much space ill delete it.

More facile from fields! Colors from left to right: Heather, Petit Pois, Rose Quartz, Storm, Bordeaux, Midnight, Navy, White, Ocelot, and Jaguar.
Ill post the performances later.
