'in the purple clouds' super-detailed art jacket
This is probably the most detailed piece of the current collection - combining pretty much every skill of the artist, from quilting to appliqué, embroidery, dyeing, painting , color discharge and more - not to mention so many different fabrics that it is like taking a tour of the natural materials! The first step in its creation was quilting together the top soft brushed cotton layer and the bottom woven silk layer, with some batting here and there to make it truly 3D. That initial creation was followed by adding pieces of matching color fabrics throughout the entire jacket. All kinds of shades of purple, violet and magenta went into its creation, with occasional splashes of wedded accents, like the gorgeous quilted pocket in the front. A true art piece to show off throughout the year. Medium weight. Product code: C6965

Brief hand wash, dryer OK.
All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.
Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.
To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.
All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.
Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.
Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.
For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
