About my design

by tiphaine   
"Springtime's comin', wait till you see it poking through with them shoots of beauty." -- "Thompson Girl" by the Tragically Hip. The design was inspired mainly by my desire to make miniature scarves for all the birds that don't fly south for the winter, but this song was running through my head all while I was working on it. On ash for gentlemen and silver for the ladyfolk.

Are the little paisleys gonna be placed like you've shown on the shirt, or like you've shown in the larger design?

Cuz I like them how they're placed on the shirt.

Very pretty. I like how the dotted line makes it look like a cut out.

Thanks all! The placement of the paisley-samara thingamajigs should match the shirt. I brought them in closer in the preview so everyone could get to know them up close and personal.

kittykat, they are samaras (seeds with wings.) they don't enjoy the cold either.
ajsolid84
ajsolid84 on Feb 01 '07
Oh... those are samaras. I used to always call them "helicopters" when I was little because of the way they spin to the ground when you throw them in the air.

that's what we called them too!

Nice comments from designers whose work I admire is pretty much the greatest feeling in the world. It's practically enough to melt that frozen little block of ice where my heart should go. I love you guys!

mellobunny (and others unsure about shirt color), i do think this could work on several lighter colors, including yellow and aqua. silver was my favorite of the bunch. it's pretty! you can get a more realistic idea of the shirt color in product photos: http://www.threadless.com/product/712/view2.jpg

Not crazy about the placement but 5 from me. I think it should be moved to the right, to emphasize the movement.
tiphaine
   tiphaine on Feb 05 '07
Interesting J-Ray, I see where you're going with this. After putting it up, I definitely regretted not kicking it another inch or two (in realsize) to the beak side. It could be interesting to move it more aggressively that way... although I do fear the "my boob is a bird!" phenomenon :)

For those craving saturated colors, check this option on coral.
