Weekend Indoor Regatta

Heading to Monster Erg at UVic tomorrow morning with some VCRC and VRC deliveries and existing stock.  I think I'll have a unisuit sale - try to clear out last years unis and make room for some fun ones this spring/summer.

Quality Quidditch Supplies

This past Fall of 2011, thanks to U of O Quidditch team, Row West became a supplier of Quidditch Uniforms.   For this team, I did a full dye sublimation print for the shirt body, including individualized numbers and on the sleeves I applied a high gloss Golden Snitch in vinyl.   Quidditch is a pretty rough sport so I used a high durability fabric with lots of stretch.  The stretch being useful because these fanatics play all year long and it helps to have a jersey that fits over a snowsuit.

Hoods for Helos

At the request of Dalhousie University Crew, I finally developed a hood pattern for the Helo jacket.  Since the detachable version is a lot more work than just building it as part of the jacket I'm not sure if I will offer [detachable] as an option.   I will, however, be making the attached hood part of the ordering options for all the jackets.

Sometimes kids are good fashion test subjects.

In the interest of testing the dye sublimation process on waterproof softshell jackets, I recently made jackets in size Youth-S and Youth-M.   I'm pleased with the results and will adapt the graphic ideas to some adult versions soon.   Just have to finish some overdue work left over from the Fall and the holiday gift orders!

Mini fashion

So, here's my first effort at tiny clothing. I made this t- shirt for Cherry Bomb Toys. The figure wearing it is around 12" tall.
