Four Jackets

May 20, 2013 3 Comments

On their way! Jackets that have found new homes:

Ocean View 1

Above, “Ocean View”, a bit of shibori, a painted edge and embroidered, beaded lines.

“White Wall”, a compilation of different white kimono silks, small leftovers that are too beautiful to throw out.

“Stripes”. You know I love kimono silks with Japanese imagery. This one has bridges and villages and paths running through the countryside. I’ve cut vertical stripes and sewn in skinny strips of another silk.

beaded flowers

And here, another landscape, this time with appliqued and beaded flowers.

A detail, it’s an homage to the Hawaiian shirt.
