Washing the Celestial Fabrics

Usually, I recommend “hand wash and lay flat to dry” as the standard instructions for the care of the knit fabrics that I offer for sale.

Closet Inspiration
Alteration to Travel Trio Three #226 Raglan Tee

This top was inspired by one hanging right in Christine’s own closet. At a glance, it has raglan sleeves, princess seams, and pockets on the side that drape a little at the top. On closer inspection, the side panel is a unit that eliminates the side seam and provides the fit along the princess lines in front and back with added length in the bodice and sleeves, and a lower neckline. The Raglan Tee from the Travel Trio Three #226 envelope is what we used to create our look.

2012 Celestial Fabric Collection
Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight...
 

The inspiration for this collection comes from the night sky colors and the idea of image and shape among the planets and stars. Spotting a shooting star, being bathed in the moonlight and first star wishes are incomparable things that we all love. I looked for ways to bring these wonders to earth in this collection and I hope you feel it when you are wearing these fabrics.
