Does anyone have experience they would share with me? Particulary interested in the use of discharge paste on velvet.
Thanks.

Sally, you might look here, Your Very Own Dévoré Velvet , I hve no personal experience in Dévoré Velvet, but I can cut and paste a URL.
A couple more links:

Sodium Bisulfate

*Way to Go, Jay!
*I used some fibre etch on a purchsed rayon/silk velvet blouse. I doodled on the right front of the shirt, blew it dry and then ironed it. It was really easy - although in some places the silk dropped out. I may have used too much fibre etch. I had bought the shirt at the end of the season last year, and was willing to risk ruining it. I would try it again too!
*Thanks girls! posted a few questions on the devore site re discharge. Think this should lead me where I want to go.
