Out of the Archives - for a good viewing

You have just seen this one on the blog, but I'm proud of it. It's the latest sublimation print, the fish/net with the blue background. It was a good experiment and I'm pleased it worked out. It was great fun to do and a lot of fun to print.

Here is the neutral checkerboard print sublimated poly cotton. I made this into a duvet cover for my parents, and it's also being made into a dress. The fabric is nice and light and has a fabulous hand to it. I really like this technique and this print. It's a lot of fun to do.


The Silver satin bomaki and the Black satin bomaki. The black has been made into some shrugs by Sophie and Gwendallyn and you can get one at Haught Style. The silver was made into a cute cowl neck top, but I think it would make a fabulous mother of the bride suit, whether with pants or a straight skirt.



The Green Silk, the Pink Silk, and the Yellow Silk. The green silk was made into a dress, but I still have close to 10 yards of it, and the yellow silk was made into a beach hoodie and is nothing but scraps now. The pink silk, I have 3 yards of and noone seems to know what to do with it. It's not my usual color choices, I was taking a risk. I guess that's just what happens.

The bronze bomaki. This one has been made into jackets and scarves by Sophie and Gwendolynn, and they are for sale at Haught Style in Prairie Village (that's in Kansas folks).

Blue Fish/net Sublimation Print

This is a new sublimation print that I'm working on now. Similar to the others, yet with a tinted background and a different all over print distorted throughout the piece.

Here's an up close look at the print.

Duvet Cover

This is a duvet cover I made for my parents for Christmas out of the neutral checker print. I'm pleased with it. It feels great and has a great weight to it. Just perfect for snuggling down on a cold winter's night.

New Print - Birds Neutral Colorway

And here is the neutral (kind of more green really) colorway for the bird print. I think I like the neutral better than the color print, tho that's a tough call on this one. I really like both of them a lot.

New Print - Birds

I have done a new print, this time it's birds. It's very simple, but I like the graphic quality of it. I'll do a neutral colorway of it too. I am really liking the neutral colorways I've been coming up with. Don't mean to toot my own horn or anything...
