Fabric properties - bandages

When choosing fabric you have to check the properties and if the match those of the garment you plan on constructing

Durability- the bandages are very durable I researched this by wearing a bandage around my hand for a full college day and checking to the damage done before leaving the college premises, the bandage was still intact with only minor pulls in the thread

Elasticity- being a stretch bandage they had a lot of elasticity which worked well with fitting the curves of the body.

Sewing - sewing on the bandages was quite difficult but the end result looked just as I hoped.
