That is a beautiful skirt - do you still wear it? A half thought should have sufficed for me to surmise that you know Chanin's work, given your deep commitment to making.

Back then, she was working with post-consumer waste t-shirts that she vat-dyed in AL. <br /><br />She later switched to organic cotton so she wasn't constrained by the size and shape of the t-shirts.<br /><br />Even back then, a jacket was $3,000. If I had a spare $3,000, I'd replace some of the doors in our condo that we left for 'later'. ;-)<br /><br />Do you remember the skirt I made w/ her techniques?<br />http://badmomgoodmom.blogspot.com/2010/01/alabama-stitch-book-condensed-version.htmlbadmomgoodmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569728075698885020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15350975.post-27215270671093335092015-09-12T11:43:11.343-07:002015-09-12T11:43:11.343-07:00Have you come across the clothes designed by Natal...Have you come across the clothes designed by Natalie Chanin yet under the brand of Alabama Chanin? 100% handmade in America. You can buy the finished garments (Roseanne Cash does), kits to make your own, or books with patterns to make your own. Lots of reverse appliqué and extensive use of jersey knit. Many an accomplished knitter is falling down the alabamachanin rabbit hole and reporting that they love both the process and the clothes. http://alabamachanin.comAnita Figuerashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02240334818475032860noreply@blogger.com
