Does anybody know if there is such a thing as metallic ultrasuede? If it actually exists, does anyone know where I might be able to find some? Or is there maybe a way to make fabric metallic? I want some gold and silver, and maybe some copper or bronze, for some dragon ideas I have, and ultrasuede is the best material I've found to work with.
Also, this may seem a bit oddball, but does tartan (or even plaid) ultrasuede exist? I'm guessing not, but I would love it if there were such a thing.
Thanks!

Just a thought but have you tried using Lumiere paints by Jacquard. I am planning on using them shortly for my mohair they are acrylic based paints but with a gorgeous metallic sheen. This might be the answer as a paint for the ultrasuede. I haven't seen any ultrasuede that has already been dyed though. I hope you find some. bear_flower

Hadn't thought of that. I'll look into it! Thanks for the suggestion!
