Have you made or modified any clothes?? I have been trying to do more of this recently.
Last year I learned to screen print in order to make t-shirts for Glitch City, the indie dev coworking space I help to plan events for. It was so much work!! I had to expose the screens in a crappy "dark room" in an alcove closed off with a curtain made of heavy black moving cloth. Here's some pics:
Thank you! I made it to wear to some transit activism events and now it's one of my favorites.
I was able to find many pro-transit/pro-bike patches on etsy. You can also get custom embroidered text ones there for relatively cheap--that's what the second one is.
yes!!! I'm trying to get back into sewing again, my brain has sabotaged that hobby for the past year [glances at a 1/3 of the way made dress on a dress form in my office]
I bet someone out there remembers me wearing this heavily kitted out denim jacket at GDC back in like 2017 lol. I removed the patches since I sewed them on, now they live on a corkboard in my office...
That manga shirt rules!! I have an all-white cycling themed t-shirt I was thinking of tie-dyeing because it gets too nasty looking if I wear it and then get sweaty cycling, haha.
Dope as shit! I've never really made or painted my clothes, though I manually taper a lot of my shirts w/ a sewing machine because I don't like the cut most have. So envious of your ability to go all out like this.
i've been making spraypaint designs for my black metal project for the last few months, have actually sold quite a few locally too. :) i have them in black/gold, black/silver, white/transflag, white/red, and a variety of others based on what i have on me.
just recently i came into a bunch of blue and orange shirts for free, so i'm likely gonna play around with some designs on those too. eventually i'd like to get to the point where i have some designs for screen printing, since my wife and i have that stuff on the deck.
