new shears & ribbon

A little peek of some of the textiles I designed I am going to use in the ERMIE Winter/Holiday collection.

New pieces for Fall/Winter/Holiday will all come out at the same time, and hopefully will be in the shop for sale by mid-October at the latest. The Bokeh Print, Magic Marker Print, and Fragment Print will also all be a part of this end of the year collection.

My friend Cheryl & her beautiful family gave me these amazing dressmaker shears for my birthday last month. I used them to make the Wiksten Pattern Tank Dress in yesterday's post. They cut through fabric like butter. I was just using a pair of sewing scissors from Ikea before!

She also gave me about a yard or so of this vintage ribbon which I love! I've posted about Cheryl many times before...she will have some of her creative & playful crochet sculptures on view as part of an installation that opens at Machine Project this Sunday. Maybe I'll see you there!

  7. really gorgeous prints- the light in them is amazing!! What fun to create your own fabrics. Aside from making clothing with the fabrics, you could really sell them as art pieces/tapestry hangings as well...
