I got my vest - I don't see two linings, how do I get the quilted off and only use the thinner lining for summer?

It's not two separate linings. The outside is one texture and the inside is quilted and it's all one piece and is nicely made.

Sorry, velvet is very touchy, there are kits that allow you to dry clean...myself I have a drycleaner to do it. My quilts have buttons ribbon and such on them I won't mach wash them either. There are shorter cropped vest suedes that are polyester and can be washed. Hope this helps you.

Greetings. The vest has about .5 cm of material but it is not removable. There is not room for other inserts.Thanks

It came in a lightweight bubble wrap sleeve. It should be easy enough to sew a soft padded pouch of some sort to slide it into if you're able to do such. I intend to do that soon but so far have used that plastic sleeve.

Hi Walter. My wife and I bought a new lining through Amazon and are very pleased with it. It was a convenient and cost-effective way to keep the slow cooker going after years of excellent service and we would would do it again if necessary. Hope that helps. Good luck, Tom

Make sure you put the foot dogs down (the things that move your fabric). Set your stitch length to "0". Practice on a scrap. I used fabric with batting between (similar to quilt). Practice how fast you move it to gauge your stitch. The foot will bounce up and down, but that is what it's supposed to do. Good Luck!

You just open the bottom part where it goes and clip it in. I guess you can use felt pieces as well. They are thick and don't fall off but glide easily to clean.

Between your child's legs there is a button where the pull strap comes out. Just above that, push down and pull out on the two chest straps evenly. Note that if you pull on one only it may just loosen the other side. Also it is not advised for your child to wear a snowsuit or jacket of any kind while using this seat. It specifically warns that its safety features work only without extra layers of clothing.

I could not find a solid Beige. What the replacement is, a light gray color, the company doesn't even carry the original. The one that I did find was the right fit wrong color. We made one, if you have the old one lay it out, buy new canvas and trace it. A nice sewing place will help with what you need. It was pretty simple and not too expensive.

That is correct. Put the stabilizer in the hoop. Remove enough of the paper so the design will fit into it, the take your fabric and place it onto the sticky stabilizer and stitch away. so very easy. I love it.

I agree with Gaby, burgandy/maroon. I am using chocolate and while it sounds weird it works! Pink or cream would be nice. I would take the quilt with you to the store. I found a place that sells the shams to match. Pauls home fashions.

I would probably use this vest in conjunction with gel packs. The individual ice pockets are joined together in sheets, but the pockets are fairly small, so they 'melt' quicker than gel packs. That being said, though, I LOVE my vest. I don't use it nearly as often as you have to, but it works well for me in the summer. If you only ice your back, you can keep the two front panels in the freezer while you use the back panel, then keep switching them out as needed. Use the gel packs in between if the vest packs don't refreeze fast enough. I hope this helps!

I used quilt batting. I bought a cheap roll of quilt batting, cut it to the width of the hangers and cut an inch or two long to roll around the hanger. I rolled a bit around the hanger and stapled the batting to secure it. I've been using mine like this for years - four states and 2 countries.

I always put two together to make a thicker mattress. I used a flat twin size sheet to cover them. I sewed Velcro strips down the two long sides of the sheet. Putting the opening in the center back, I cover the futon mattresses with the sheet. To do that, lay the sheet on the floor, center the two mattresses on top of it. Pull the sheet sides tight up and around the Futons on both sides, using the Velcro to hook the sides together. This makes one long velcro'd seam in the center back. You could probably just use some large safety pins instead of the Velcro if you wanted. I put this seamed side down on the floor. I just tuck extra fabric at the top and bottom between the two mattresses for a neater look. You could also just sew the sheet together like a big pillowcase and put the Futons inside, but it takes a little elbow grease to get them in there if you want a tight enough fit so the mattresses stay in place. By wrapping the Futons in the sheet, it keeps them on top of each other so that they don't slide off of each other and it makes a pretty comfortable bed.

I had to use duct tape...nobody sees it anyways with clothes on it. I put the lighter tops and dress shorts on the bottom GOOD LUCK

It is suppossed to be a one hand quick release so you can quickly remove the entire vest. Maybe for like treatment of an injury or if you fell into deep water or something. It is suppossed to hook all the panels together in the back instead of the cord. Im not sure how to set that up i have not researched it yet. Higher end vests like 5.11 and such come with it already hooked up. You might be able to google search or youtube to figure out to set that up. I just use the vest for tacticle training classes/range so i just remove the cable altogether as i dont really need it

I've never tried that but you would need to iron it to the pattern and then you could use something like thin fabric or interfacing to fuse the other side. This is like double stick tape. It allows you to fuse two surfaces together. Does that help?
