Fabric sightings: clothing!

Thank you to those of you who have kindly reported spotting my fabric designs out and about. Since I license designs to other companies to print, I have no way of knowing which customers buy the finished yardage from them and make it into fabulous things. Like clothing—check out the adorable raincoats by Widgeon Kids at Zappos.

How about bridesmaid dresses? Here's some Outside Oslo in the shape of skirts, spotted in pictures of Molly and Patrick's wedding at Green Wedding Shoes. This photo is courtesy of Jeremy Lawson, a Chicago-area wedding and portrait photographer with an impressive body of work. (Need a photographer? Look him up!)

    Thanks, Katie! Part of me is embarrassed for posts like this because it feels totally self-serving, but dang it, I just get so excited when I see the cool things people make. :)

    You have it in laminate or do they do that as part of their apparel line?

    The raincoat folks must have had it laminated.

    It's a good job I already have a totally cute raincoat otherwise I would be ripping those off the backs of small children.

    You can buy lamination at most chain fabric store. You should be really excited- these are so great!

    My husband and I were in Newburyport, MA last night and saw some of your fabric made into something cute (can't remember what now--I was just noticing the fabric) in a shop window.

    The raincoats are adorable, and the wedding is too awesome. I love the vintage look! That has to be so exciting to see your designs being used in so many exciting ways.

    I know a few people in Chicago who have used Jeremy. His work is beautiful!

    I saw a commercial on the TV the other day (I think it was for cotton) and I saw fabric on a dress that reminded me of your designs. Don't know if it was or not but would be cool if it was!
