Shades of the Iris

November 23, 2015

Here is another designs I made.  This one is probably going to be worn the most!

Striped Flowers in Lavender – This is a mixture of Iris, Roses and Dahlias in the same shades.  This was printed on Satin, and scaled to print at 4″ x 4″.

The satin is a bit thin, so I like to use it for lined dresses or skirts.  It is also good for sleepwear, so I made my daughter some lounge pants out of it.  Luckily, I had some knit that matched for a top.

When you get the satin fabric, it is a little stiff.  After washing and drying it gets nice and pliable.

I have a few more designs yet to show, and I need to figure out what I want to make out of them.  They are in a similar color way.

I am STILL waiting on samples of the red/black/white designs I showed earlier.  She is not getting back to me, so I don’t know what her deal is, but I am starting to get frustrated.  It is pretty clear I won’t have them by Christmas, so I am hoping for February at this point.

When I get the chance…I also took pictures of the fall leaves.  I went around our yard and grabbed a bunch of different ones, photographing them on a white posterboard.  They will be much easier to cut out in Photoshop than these were in their natural element.  Something to work on this winter.

I have a never ending to do list right now, though.  Doesn’t everyone, though??

    1. Thanks, Lori! Yes, this time of year there is so much to do. I try not to get to overwhelmed, but it always seems to happen.
