This week I'll be cutting out a dress and jacket, co-designed with the Mom of Groom, using the #satin #jacquard from her mother's #wedding dress and some lilac #silk her son - the groom - brought her years ago from a trip to Thailand.

So, #upcycling at it's best, reusing every morsel of this lovely ivory - and she's going to dye it to complement the lilac! And while it travelled the world, at this stage, it's become #deadstock as it is at least 5 years waiting to be made into something...

I'm cutting the pieces and handing them off to her to dye, then I'll get them back to begin the assembly...

#Digitalisierung ist älter als die meisten ahnen.
Sie wurde jedoch erst durch Elektronik so richtig beschleunigt.

Und dann waren da noch die #Halbleiter und Gordon #Moore (#Intel).

Super psyched to share the blankets I added to my shop today ٩( ᐛ )و

The fun part about designing prints is seeing how the colors turn out when they get translated from pixels to pigments/fibers.
