Haha, no problem! Thank you for your pattern order!
I'm still developing dye recipes for everyone interested, but “Starbase375logistics” on Etsy offers excellent jumbo spandex in TNG division colors:

The red and gold swatches are from there. The teal is something I custom-dyed a year or two ago, but SB375L has since begun offering a very close color as well.
(Do note that the teal is matched to a uniform from later in the series, but the earlier teal is quite different. I occasionally do small batches of the early teal – a few yards here and there – but am working on a better long-term solution.)
Happy sewing! 🙂
