It's official! Storied Threads is now embroidery-capable!  We've got a few embroidered Pirate Sashes made up for a test run at Down East Pirate Days this weekend.  Once I have a feel for what sorts of designs are well-received, I'll make up some more for SPF and CTRF as well.  And, of course, we'll be adding more and more designs to our library.  I actually have more prepared, I just haven't put them on fabric yet.  As soon as I do, I'll scan them in and get them up on the website, too.

Remember a while ago, I mentioned that one of the benefits of designing new women's clothes was that I get to keep the prototype? Well, the same holds true for Mike -- nine times out of ten, when I make something new in my men's line, he gets to keep the first one.  And this time was no exception, as I finished my first pair of Fall Front Knee Breeches this weekend!



Mike tried them on Sunday afternoon, and lunged and advanced and retreated and kicked his way around the studio, and declared them very comfortable and not restrictive at all for fighting, which made me happy.  There are, as always, some bits to tweak before I make the first pair for a paying customer, but they're all minor, and overall, I'm very happy with the way these came out.
