New Skirt and Ebay Auction

So this skirt is finally done!  It originally had pockets, but I decided to remove them yesterday due to issues with the side seams hanging correctly given the fabric used. 

I'm really pleased with how the patchwork turned out on this one.  If you recall from  a previous post, I started out playing around with much wider strips.  None of the arrangements were appealing to me, though. 

It took a while, but soon I realized that was because the thick pieces were just too much.  They ended up being trimmed down pretty significantly. 

 The brightly colored Kente print is really nice. All of the pieces are top zig zag stitched with black thread.

I like! :)

This one hasn't been uploaded to Etsy yet, but it will be soon!

Regrouping

Happy Sunday!

As I begin to wrap up the final days of this month's sale (save 15% when you enter SAVE15 at checkout), I'm contemplating new concepts *and* a new collection/brand name that will showcase garments made exclusively from organic fabrics--hemp, cotton, perhaps soy, etc.  

This has been a long time coming, as I've always been fascinated by the idea of working only with organic materials.   In sourcing the fabrics, I'm really looking forward to securing connections with cloth producers in African nations and other places so that within the new line of garments I can incorporate organic--which is really just standard in many places when it comes to agricultural production-- Kente and other distinctive prints. 

flyTie Clothing Mini Dresses, $28-$46

I do intend to still operate the flyTIe Clothing brand, however garments promoted under this label will be offered primarily on a made-to-order basis...maybe with an occasional one-of-a-kind piece thrown in when I can't resist the urge to randomly create. :-)

Have a great week.~~
