This looks really cool, but I wish the detail image was larger. Could you post a link to a larger image?
|
 |
Tonteau on Sep 18 '09 Cooool!
|
 |
ndikol on Sep 18 '09 wow cool :D
|
 |
Good show. Glad it got approved for voting. Shame about the flash file being a bit wonky, but having seen the original image, I am quite convinced this would be an awesome T-Shirt. Perhaps post a larger view of the detail somewhere?
|
 |
this is really cool. makes me feel fancy.
|
 |
cool!
|
|
Ah, what with no buttons or instructions, I did not know that clicking on the file enlarges the detail view.
|
 |
EmmyCic on Sep 18 '09 I botched the flash file, sorry :( I don't think I can edit it at this point
Here is a close-up, guys! http://emmy.eviltrailmix.com/ToileCreamDA.jpg |
|
Love it :D
|
|
:O
|
|
I'd buy this, definitely
|
|
I have Toile print lamp shades and a quilt in blue-on-off-white. It's hilarious. THIS is hilarious. I want THIS for my bed-spread. It would fill my room with so much elegance I wont be able to breathe. :B
PS--when I mouseover the preview image, it becomes large, and I can see the detail just fine. :) |
 |
i WILL buy this. :]
|
|
This is the first t-shirt design I've EVER seen that I would actually put down money to own. This is too hilarious not to win!
|
|
I want to buy this shirt so much
|
 |
i want this shirt!
|
|
I want I want I want I want I want!
|
 |
My life will be incomplete without an opportunity to purchase this!
|
 |
most excellent
|
 |
Awesome!~
|
|
I've never wanted a shirt so bad. Win or else!
|
|
I love this. I must have it. :)
|
 |
I must own it!
|
 |
haha!
maybe also blue on light blue? |
|
Good luck! I desperately want to own this. Funniest thing I've seen on Threadless. But, if someone started commenting on how funny the shirt was, I'd know they'd been looking closely at my upper area... WORTH IT.
|
|
WANT so badly
|
|
I will pray to the shirt gods so this wonderful item of clothing gets made.
|
|
Go here: http://binsybaby.livejournal.com/645840.html to see a full sized pic that shows all the awesome detail!
|
|
Love this! I want a shirt with this so bad it hurts!
|
 |
Really awesome! :D I would love to have this shirt!
|
|
I want this so badly!!!!!
|
|
I'd for serious buy this
|
 |
Great!! :D
|
 |
I would love to have this. My mom adores toile prints and she thought this was hilarious. I would so buy this! :D
|
|
Love it. It'd be cool if you put it on a hoodie too, I think that could be a fun change? I'd definitely buy that if it was available! But I'd buy the shirt if not, just for the funny looks people would give me. :]
|
|
I love the humor of it. =) I'd buy
|
 |
ahahahahahahhaha awesome xD! +5 for you!
|
 |
This is beautiful and funny at the same time! I really hope it gets made, will buy!
|
 |
Aphte on Sep 19 '09 This is great !
|
 |
Love it!
|
|
I would so buy this!
|
|
WANT. WANT. SO. HARD. 0.0 i really hope you win for this
|
 |
silverqe on Sep 19 '09 Could there be any more fake comments on this thing?
|
 |

|
 |
lawrence loh on Sep 19 '09 incredible work with incredible scoring!
|
|
I will most definitely buy this. I laugh every time I look at it.
|
|
EmmyCic on Sep 19 '09 Thanks so much, everybody! :)
Silverge: No fake posts here, it's just my friends from other websites. |
|
Mmmm, I want me one of these! $5!!!
|
|
This is absolutely amazing, if it gets printed it will bring such joy to the world. SUCH JOY.
|
|
It's actually really really funny up close. I want this shirt SO badly.
|
|
that is ridiculously awesome.
|
 |
This shirt must be MINEEEE! *U*
|
 |
I loled. Not sure if I like it on a tee since there is almost too much going on, but it is hilarious.
|
 |
Love it! FFF
|
 |
OH MY GOSH- I LOVE THIS.
|
 |
Haha, wish I had legions of fans to tote all the way to winning. Then again, I saw this on your blog first, so I guess I'm one of them voting 5!!
:) Nice work |
 |
Ahahaha! This is hilarious!
The effect only works when close up, so I wonder how many people (upon viewing the shirt) would get it. Still, I'd totally buy it. |
 |
MegP on Sep 20 '09 Awesome idea ~ $5!
|
 |
evan3 on Sep 20 '09 i dont know if these are fake comments but overall i would give this a 2
|
|
EmmyCic on Sep 20 '09 I wouldn't even know how to make fake comments even if I wanted to!
|
 |
Lol gosh, here's a totally real comment for a real totally awesome shirt! Hope it gets printed!! $5 all the way!
|
|
Ugh totally love this XD
It's cute in a weird way |
|
I've never wanted to buy a shirt from Threadless so bad before
|
 |
Love it!
|
|
'ere's a real comment for ya--This shirt is hilarious! I /will/ buy it when they print it. (Wouldja look at all the confidence I got?)
|
 |
I like your shirt but I am a fake comment
|
|
This shirt is rockin.
|
 |
B 7 on Sep 20 '09 looks beautiful. would like to see the detail better
|
|
this is so hilarious, i hope it gets printed! good luck :)
|
|
Totally love it! It makes people look twice! (Maybe even more!)
|
 |
PRETTY CUTE EMMS.
|
|
gorgeous! print it punks!
|
|
I really want this shirt, I cant wait to see how confused i will make people when they look at it closely and do a little double take at the silliness of it all.
BTW_ moving goats guy is the best! |
|
More detail! All appreciate the full glory: http://emmy.eviltrailmix.com/ToileCreamDA.jpg

 |
sweet n sour on Sep 20 '09 wow
yes great I dig it |
|
sweet n sour on Sep 20 '09 I have been thinking of doing Toile de Jouy style pattern using my drawings for awhile I really should get round to it, doubt I will sub it as shirt design though.
I do like yours its cool and funny great stuff. |
|
Fffffffantastic
|
|
$5 $5 $5 $5!
Emmy, I want to be your meat billboard. |
|
Ffff I want this so bad, I hope it wins or however this stuff works!
|
 |
totally voted!!! also, i want to beat up the "fake comment" accusers. THATS RIGHT, I SAID I WANTED TO BEAT YALL UP.
INTERNET THREATS FROM AN INTERNET TOUGH GUY. |
 |
probably one of the most incredible ideas i've ever seen!, if only threadless sold blouses!!!
|
|
how do i have this with me now?
|
 |
FUH! I want this shirt SO BAD.
|
|
okay seriously i need this to be on my body ASAP
|
|
this is a fake comment
5 |
|
Do comments raise the likelyhood of a design getting printed? To my knowledge, they don't. Why does it matter if a comment is fake or not? You just cannot comprehend the vastness of Emmy's internet fandom. =O
|
|
buying asap mmhmm yes plox
|
 |
I love toile prints and I love this! I want this as wallpaper for my room. :D
|
|
I love it because it's such a departure from a lot of the usual Threadless fare of lame visual puns, parodies and updates on pop culture stuff, etc. It's classy and hilarious and I am so anxious for the voting to be over!
|
 |
Oy your shirt is absolutely fabulosa! I'd defiantely buy it! +5
|
 |
*fake comment alert*
I love this shirt with all of my heart and soul. I want to buy it so badly I would cut off both arms and sell them to desperate arm merchants who would somehow make it possible for this shirt to exist. For we would all be topless if not for those gallantly relentless arm merchants. Oh, I would absolutely DIE if this shirt were not made a reality. I honestly truly promise that I love this shirt. I have voted it a $5 and check marked the box that said I would also buy it as a tee, just in case people were confused about the part where I said I wanted it as a SHIRT. Please, please, pretty please with sugar dumplings on top. Make. This. Shirt. Happen. Thank you. P.S. I was joking when I used the fake comment alert. And Emmy is awesome. |
|
I desperately need this shirt.
|
|
I want this shirt, fiercely and intensely. MAKE IT SO, THREADLESS.
|
 |
fffff this is awesome. I would mo' def buy one.
And whoever suggested a hoodie, I SECOND THAT. |
 |
fatheed on Sep 21 '09 I love this! Love your illustration style and sense of humour.
|
|
i would totally buy this :o) great job!
|
|
Can't wait for this one!
|
 |
My favorite is 'stop at once, dog!'. Cute.
|
|
Methinks fake comment suggester people are jealous of the awesomeness of the design and your online popularity. Whatevs.
I want this so badly it makes my brain hurt. |
 |
wow, seems like you are really promoting this well. It appears like wallpaper, over 1,000 scores already too. Anyways, it looks pretty fun!
|
|
this is really great. I don't know if I'd wear it myself (kind of stopped wearing tshirts lately) but I'd love to see what it looks like on a real tee!
and as for the "fake comments": all of you saying such do not know how popular emmy and her brother neil are, and it's entirely possible for their fans to turn out in droves for things like this. |
|
It's really cool that Threadless fixed the presentation for you. It would look pretty as a print at a distance and be hilarious for someone examining it up close, like behind you on the bus or something.
|
 |
Great design sense of humor.
|
|
I third the hoodie idea! I will buy this!
|
|
I want thissssss!!!!!
Maybe you could do a red print one as well? I love the blue and would love to see how red would look :D |
|
I LOVE IT!!!!!
|
 |
My two loves just met, B1nd1 and Threadless- and I couldn't be happier! :'D
This shirt better get printed, because I'm buying it right away! |
|
I am a real comment and I approve of this shirt.
|
 |
i love this old illustration style!!
well done 5$!! |
 |
my favorite
|
 |
igo2cairo on Sep 22 '09 Haha, wish I had half as many internet friends as you. Anyway, really funny idea and a charming style! :)
|
 |
This is hilarious :)
|
|
This is good, but can you make one with robots and swords so manly men like myself can wear it?
|
|
It is fantastic! I hope to wear it!
|
|
@MarcoBat16: That is SUCH a good idea. Emmy, are you reading all of these comments?
|
|
Toile featuring robots and swords? Sounds pretty attractive to me xD
|
|
Too busy if you ask me..... I know you didn't.

Joined so I could vote :}
This is a lot cooler than anything I could find in a shop. |
|
this is totally awesome!
|
|
This tee is just so much fun to look at :)
|
|
This is completely fantastic!
|
 |
Cute.
|
 |
lots of non-avatars which is meh but.. this is still cute.
|
|
I too support the idea of robot toile.
|
|
fatheed on Sep 25 '09 Haha. Nice score!
|
 |
Jinkies! 3.84! Nice score indeed.
|
|
Decent score, though I think it deserves higher. Hope this gets made. I would very much like to sport one.
|
|
EmmyCic on Sep 25 '09 What a great score! Thank you so much for voting, everyone! :)

FRICKINAWESOME on Dec 26 '09 silverqe on Sep 19 '09
Could there be any more fake comments on this thing? |
 |
I think you guys need to realise that Emmy here has probably introduced more people to threadless then any of us combined using legitimate techniques that threadless actually encourages.
So well done Emmy and congrats on the print. |
|
FRICKINAWESOME on Dec 27 '09 sjem on Dec 26 '09
I think you guys need to realise that Emmy here has probably introduced more people to threadless then any of us combined using legitimate techniques that threadless actually encourages. And that matters to me from an artistic sense why? And I checked a random 5 or 6 of these people Emmy "introduced" to our wonderful threadless world, and very few had scored more than 2 or 3 submissions since this one and have not subbed any slogans or designs. This could be a very cool print if it was put on the shirt in a more interesting way and not the same scene tiled over and over again, but please don't use that mode of thought to legitimize this piece. And of course, congrats to anyone who gets a print on Threadless, it's a mighty accomplishment no matter what i think of the product! |
|
Hey FnA - you're quite right, from an artistic sense it means nought. I think the score on this tee is greatly exaggerated too, I'm just making the point that Threadless has a vast amount of experience in deciding what does and does not print, and they have made the call on this one. I also reckon maybe 1 out every 50 people who Emmy has introduced end up participating further - but every bit helps.
Let me also add that I hold your input and experience on Threadless in the highest regard so it's great to chew the fat over this kinda thing with you. |
|
FRICKINAWESOME on Dec 27 '09 sjem, you're probably right about the 1 in 50 people even though like i said that doesn't factor into what prints or doesn't from an observer's view (or course I want Threadless to do well, but still), and as for holding my opinion in the highest regard, even i don't do such a thing! hehe. Yeah man, spirited debates are why i love this place.
|
 |
HorsefaceDee on Dec 27 '09 I totally need a deviantart account
|
 |
jublin on Dec 27 '09 I think it's great! Reminds me of a naked&angry shirt I have done by Ray Fenwick. I hate it when threadless becomes whiney and elitist if someone new gets a high score and uses their fanbase to an advantage. It's embarrassing.
|
 |
Congrats on the print!
This is hilarious. I used to have a job scanning fabrics like this for a company's web images. If I could, I would buy one for everyone at the old job. |
 |
NiNTH WHEEL on Dec 28 '09 Congrats!
|
 |
i knew it! you are part of the Cicierega family, associated with the "Potter Puppet Pals"... thats fun. thats the "other websites" peeple.
|
|
|
Yay Emmy! Can't wait to see what else you bring us.
|
 |
hahahhaa wow the drama. I'm just happy to see that someone who's outside of the normal circle of printed artists can jump in and get printed too.
By the way, I totally did a double take when I saw this name... Neil Cicierega, her brother and creator of potter puppet pals? That's funny, we have an internet celebrity sibling printed on Threadless haha |
|
igo2cairo on Dec 28 '09 Congrats! :)

Ten out of five!!!

randyotter3000 on Feb 09 '10 I still feel sick when i look at this, it looks like it was drawn with a wacom in 20 minutes
|
 |
ndstillie on Feb 09 '10 I still like it. Good job.
|
 |
Fantastic job! :D I really hope you win the design of the year!!! Greatest of luck, this design is classic and humorous at the same time. :)

About my design
From a distance it looks like a cute vintage toile pattern.
But up close it is far more quaint than that!
To be belt printed a darkish blue on a cream shirt.
