Do you know about saree material?
I've been looking around at different websites showing Indian sarees and I think they are beautiful, but I don't know much about them. There are so many different styles and fabrics that I don't know what to look for. Is there a saree fabric that is a) machine washable, b) does not wrinkle easily, c) is not sheer/see-through, and d) flows well/ not stiff like silk
The majority of sarees are made of Faux Georgette Fabric. To be honest I have never washed any of my sarees but if I were to I wouldnt put it in the washing machine I would just hand wash it. The only part of the saree that needs to be washed is the blouse. Hope this helps
@Lupozee, Thanks, that does help! But as another question to anyone, how do you care for your saree if you don't usually wash it besides the blouse? is it hung up or folded somewhere? can you usually iron them?

What is the silliest thing you have accidentally run through the washing machine?I recently washed a thick paperback book - didn't hurt the laundry, but some pages joined in a kind of paper mache. It was a good book, too.

Malayalam heroines from the Mollywood are always fascinating because they wear sarees , salwar kameez in movies. There are many malayali celebrities we love to watch in films. I will start with Kanika in a traditional old style dress in movie pazhassiraja

What item do you think is easy to sew and maybe sell? My guess would be handbags, or totes.What fabric would be best when making a handbag that is used for gneral everyday use? I often use canvas for totes, and lighter material for an evening out. Just curious, as to what folks are most...

I know patterns and fabrics vary, but I wanted to make a cute 50's style dress. I feel like I was made to be born in that era. haha. Anyways, what's your experience with designing your own clothes, is it easy to work a sewing machine? If I were to began trying, what's a cheap way to go about doing...

Maybe you should change the name of the hub to something like: The Best Waterproof Fabric for Making Raincoats and Sleeping Bags.
