Always prewash your fabric!!

 I have no idea where I got this stretch denim or when I got it. I made a pair of love Notions Duet pants with said fabric. I worked out the fit, worked out a way to change the closure, etc. In other words spent precious sewing time on them. When I finished them, I decided they were giving off a little dye so I washed them before wearing them. When I pulled them out of the washer I couldn’t believe my eyes…they disintegrated in several places. I have never had anything like this happen before. Lots of wasted time. Lesson learned.
