I almost purchased it. I am glad I told myself next time. It is beautiful in person and the price tag was not cheap. I would have been hot!!! Sorry you had to be the one to take one for the team.

However, glad that there was a happy ending.<br /><br /> I am thinking the design may have been painted with an embossing powder then was heated to set the raised design, which did not hold up well to washing, and may have been the culprit for the disappearing design.<br /><br /> <br />Found this link: http://www.ehow.com/info_8722500_fabric-fades-faster-synthetic-cotton.html#ixzz24TBsx0ML<br /> <br /><br />"While most type of cotton fabric do not fade easily, some are dyed in a unique manner that makes it more susceptible to fading. This includes denim, which is a thick fabric woven from cotton fibers. Manufacturers brush denim with dye so that it only lays on the surface." This prevents the dye from touching, and perhaps dyeing, your skin. This causes fabric that is only dyed on one side to fade quickly.<br /><br /><br /><br />Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03688900287732221253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-57667528717025931932012-08-23T18:15:03.108-07:002012-08-23T18:15:03.108-07:00You know I've seen some of the sweater knits a...You know I've seen some of the sweater knits at the local fabric store (where I too am a bit of a "fabric stalker" and am on a first name basis with everyone there). I wouldn't know where to start with such a fabric. I am looking forward to seeing what you do with it. And I am glad the fabric store allowed returns because that design really did disappear! By the way, I love this blog...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02500490363731355974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-26153221799826647162012-08-23T17:56:09.217-07:002012-08-23T17:56:09.217-07:00Rachel I've never seen polka dot denim but it ...Rachel I've never seen polka dot denim but it sounds really cool.

Does Joann's have any polka dot denim. Ever since I saw polka dot skinny jeans at Anthropologie, I have been wating some, but I can't pay anthropologies prices.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00688966589348240850noreply@blogger.com
