hey guys,
i just bought this old carhartt jacket and was wanting to dye it black (not a fan of the middle design, and the jacket itself is very faded + has stains or something). the outer is 100% cotton and the design in the middle, as well as the entire inner, is polyester. i was thinking about using Rit cotton dye for the outer to get rid of the stains and make it darker, but since this wont dye the polyester i would run through it again with rit DyeMore, which is specifically made for polyester. basically my dilemma here is that i'm not sure if the jacket will get fucked up if i dye it with two different dyes.
if that's a bad idea using the polyester dye, then is there any way to just blacken the middle entirely without the design showing, after i dye the whole thing with cotton dye?
thanks

Any ideas on what I can use these pieces of old denim jeans for which I have quite a lot, I was thinking about maybe a denim noragi made of different shades of blue, or patchwork jeans. I'm still thinking and I wanna hear some other ideas

didn't another anon do something like that for school? if all else fails, you can always make a quilt out of them

Yeah someone else made a noragi but it looked very "home-made"

Don't know anything about dye, but take off the carhart logo.
