Vuosi sitten joulukuussa kirjoittelin suunnitelmistani<\/a> tehd\u00e4 Padme Amidalan hovineidon taisteluasu cosplay-juttuihin. Mietin pitk\u00e4\u00e4n kangasasiaa koska sametti on hintavaa. Lopulta tilasin puuvillasamettia Kangastukun nettikaupasta. Kuvan perusteella kankaan piti olla luumuun taittavaa viininpunaista. Ei nyt ihan t\u00e4sm\u00e4lleen oikeaa s\u00e4vy\u00e4, mutta l\u00e4helle. Noh, pettymys oli karvas kun kangas saapui. Todellisuudessa se on aika helakan punaista, joskin viininpunaiseen taittuvaa. Ei kuitenkaan l\u00e4hell\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4n alkuper\u00e4ist\u00e4, saati edes netin tuotekuvaa.<\/p>\n

Ett\u00e4 jotta mit\u00e4 sit\u00e4 sitten t\u00e4ss\u00e4 tekisi? Olisin toki voinut palauttaa kankaan, mutta en saanut sit\u00e4 aikaiseksi tehd\u00e4. V\u00e4ri on kuitenkin sen verran kaukana siit\u00e4 mit\u00e4 sen pit\u00e4isi olla ett\u00e4 asun tekeminen tuntui hiukan p\u00f6lj\u00e4lt\u00e4 tuollaisenaan. Tied\u00e4n olevani perfektionisti, mutta omalle p\u00e4\u00e4lleen on joskus vaikea tehd\u00e4 mit\u00e4\u00e4n. Kangas on onneksi puuvillaa (en olisi pystynyt k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n kokonaista tekokuitusamettista asua)<\/strong> <\/span>joten mahdollisuuksia ehk\u00e4 olisi viel\u00e4 v\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4miseen. Olen v\u00e4rj\u00e4ysasioissa aika noviisi joten hiukan arveluttaa tuo homma. Onko arvon lukijoilla kokemusta sametin v\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4misest\u00e4? Tai tied\u00e4ttek\u00f6 hyv\u00e4n nettisivun josta l\u00f6ytyisi ohjeita sametin v\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4miseen? Ja nyt kun katson kangasta taas uudelleen niin onko tuo nyt sitten niin kamalasti v\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4n v\u00e4rinen lopulta?<\/p>\n

Year ago in December I wrote about my plans<\/a> to make Padme Amidala handmaid battle costume for cosplay. I thought about the fabric for long time because velvet is not cheap. Finally I ordered some cotton velvet online. Based on the photo on the webshop it was supposed to be dark burgundy\u00a0red shifting towards plum. Not exactly correct, but close. Well, it was huge disappointment when it arrived. In reality it was more cherry red than plum or\u00a0burgundy. Not even close to the original colour, nor even close the online photo.<\/p>\n

So what to do then? I could have returned the fabric, but somehow I didn’t manage to do that in time. Colour is so much off that making the outfit as it is seems a bit stupid. I know I’m perfectionist, but sometimes turning your own head is impossible. Thankfully fabric is cotton (I couldn’t wear whole costume of polyester velvet)<\/strong><\/span> so it might be possible to dye it. I am quite a novice when it comes to dyeing, so I’m a bit iffy. Does any of you have experience dyeing velvet? Or do you know a good website with helpfull tips for dying cotton velvet? And now, looking at the fabric again, is it really that much wrong colour in the end?<\/p>\n

Punaisia s\u00e4vyj\u00e4 on vaikea saada kuvattua oikein. T\u00e4ss\u00e4 v\u00e4ri niin l\u00e4hinn\u00e4 luonnollista<\/strong><\/span>
\nkuin nyt puhelimen kameralla pystyy saamaan. P\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 tilkku kirkkaanpunaista samettia.<\/strong><\/span>
\nPukuun haluamani v\u00e4ri olisi viel\u00e4 tummempi rusehtavan violettiin<\/a> taittava
\nluumunpunainen. \/<\/strong><\/span>
\nRed shades are tricky to photograph. Here it is as close to reality as possible to<\/strong><\/span><\/em>
\nachieve with phone camera. On top there is a scrap of bright red velvet for<\/strong><\/span><\/em>
\ncomparison. The accurate colour I was looking for the costume would be darker<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/em>
\nplum shade, shifting towards brownish lilac.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
