Sewing Supplies for Custom T-Shirts

Video Transcript

"GRACE FRAGA: Alright, so we already cut the designs. And now, it's time to pick a thread color. CHANTELLE TIBBS: Yes, this is very, very, very important because the way that you would trace or sew whatever you're sewing onto the shirt that you have--we have an orange here... GRACE FRAGA: Yes. CHANTELLE TIBBS: ...that could match this color right here inside the design. We have a green. That's also a good color to use 'cause green and orange go well. GRACE FRAGA: Yes. CHANTELLE TIBBS: You don't necessarily have to use the classic black, you can if you want to. There's no problem with it. But the classic black also--it doesn't necessarily make it as pop as much as these other color choices may. GRACE FRAGA: Especially with a black T-shirt. CHANTELLE TIBBS: Especially with a black T-shirt. And there's nothing wrong with popping it with the stitching and a lot of people do that. There's are even T-shirts that are sewn, even the stitching in here would be red and they look fantastic so--I mean, it's up to you, you're the artist, you're going to go in through all of these to create a hand stitched T-shirt and you might as well just add a little extra dash of creativity. GRACE FRAGA: Great and how about doubling it like using orange and green? That would be my inclination. CHANTELLE TIBBS: You can definitely use orange and green. So--I mean, that's the way you choose your color. In this case we've chosen olive-we have this there... GRACE FRAGA: Olive right there. CHANTELLE TIBBS: So, yeah. GRACE FRAGA: And then you can also do the fish in olive and maybe this one, the Redistribute in orange. CHANTELLE TIBBS: Yeah. GRACE FRAGA: That would look fun. So, great. So, we already picked the thread. Olive green for this one and orange for that one. CHANTELLE TIBBS: Good. GRACE FRAGA: So, up next Chantelle is going to teach us how to sew."
