Okay, at the local fabric store today and saw these packages of "Quilt tape" fabric. It is about an inch wide and 54" long. I brought them and cut two 1.4 feet sections and had enough leftover to make a couple more! For 1.00 a piece I can have any colour I want. II just wrap them around the elastic bands and I can interchange them. I now have the whole colour wheel of flashes for less then 6 dollars! All you need is a pair of scissors if you want to taper them or anything.

I know there are many Traddy Rabble that will dislike them, but for a t-shirt kilted day they worked just fine!
