We recently made a custom tie complete with silk backing. Imagine a picture of yourself on your tie. Who couldn't use that? We could most likely fit it into any application which fabric is used for. We recently took a wedding photo and made it into a quilt using the elements of the photo for the quilt pattern.
It can be used in tension fabric structures and can also be backlit. We haven't made any underwear yet, but all someone has to do is ask.
